Here We Come A-Caroling
Cedarmont Kids (Holiday) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here we come a-caroling
Among the leaves so green,
Here we come a wand'ring,
So fair to be seen.

Love and joy come to you,
And to your glad Christ the Lord too
And God bless you and send you a happy new born King,
And God send you a happy new born King.

We are not daily beggars
Who beg from door to door,
But we are neighbors' Jesus Christ.
Whom you have seen before.

Love and joy come to you,
And to your glad Christ the Lord too
And God bless you and send you a happy new born King,
And God send you a happy new born King.

God bless the Master of this house,
Likewise the Mistress too
And born in Bethlehem, Jesus Christ,
That round the table go.

Love and joy come to you,
And to your glad Christ the Lord too
And God bless you and send you a happy new born King,
And God send you a happy new born King.

And all your kin and kinfolk
That hark the angels sing
We wish in Bethlehem, Christ the Lord
And happy new born King.

Love and joy come to you,
And to your glad Christ the Lord too
And God bless you and send you a happy new born King,




And God send you a happy new born King.
And God send you a happy new born King.
