Good King Wenceslaus looked out
FC
On the feast of Stephen
When the snow lay 'round about
FC
Deep and crisp and even
Am
Brightly shone the moon that night
FC
Though the frost was cruel
AmFG
When a poor man came in sight
CFC
Gathering winter fu-u-el
"Hither, page, and stand by me
FC
If thou knowest it, telling
Yonder peasant, who is he?
FC
Where and what his dwelling?"
Am
"Sire, he lives a good league hence
FC
Underneath the mountain
AmFG
Right against a forest fence
CFC
By Saint Agnes' fou-oun-tain"
"Bring me flesh, and bring me wine
FC
Bring me pine logs hither
Thou and I shall see him dine
FC
When we bear them thither"
Am
Page and monarch, forth they went
FC
Forth they went together
AmFG
Through the rude wind's wild lament
CFC
And the bitter wea-ea-ther
"Sire, the night is darker now
FC
And the wind blows stronger
Fails my heart, I know not how
FC
I can go no longer"
Am
"Mark my footsteps, my good page
FC
Tread thou in them boldly
AmFG
Thou shalt find the winter's rage
CFC
Freeze thy blood less co-old-ly"

In his master's steps he trod
FC
Where the snow lay dinted
Heat was in the very sod
FC
Which the saint had printed
Am
Therefore, Christian men, be sure
FC
Wealth or rank possessing
AmFG
Ye who now will bless the poor
CFC
Shall yourselves find ble-es-sing
