Good Christen Folk, and Listen category: Hymns & Carols lyrics or other text: words by G.R. Woodward
Ding-dong, ding: Ding-a-dong-a-ding:
Ding-dong, ding-dong: Ding-a-dong-ding.
Up! good Christen folk, and listen
How the merry churchbells ring,
And from steeple bid good people
Come adore the new-born King:
Tell the story how from glory
God came down at Christmas-tide,
Bringing gladness, chasing sadness,
Show'ring blessings far and wide,
Born of mother, blest o'er other,
Ex Maria Virgine,
In a stable ('tis no fable),
Christus natus hodie. Parsons Code: UUDUUUDUDDDUDDD
