2. "Hither, page, and stand by me, If thou know' st it, telling,

Yonder peasant, who is he? Where and what his dwelling?" "Sire, he lives a good league hence, Underneath the mountain, Right against the forest fence, By Saint Agnes' fountain."

3. "Bring me flesh, and bring me wine, Bring me pine-logs hither: Thou and I will see him dine, When we bear them thither." Page and monarch, forth they went, Forth they went together; Through the rude wind' s wild lament And the bitter weather.

4. "Sire, the night is darker now, And the wind blows stronger; Fails my heart, I know not how; I can go no longer."

"Mark my footsteps good, my page; Tread thou in them boldly: Thou shalt find the winter' s rage Freeze thy blood less coldly."

5. In his master' s steps he trod, Where the snow lay dinted; Heat was in the very sod Which the saint had printed.

Therefore, Christian men, be sure, Wealth or rank possessing, Ye who now will bless the poor, Shall yourselves find blessing.

2. I thought how, as the day had come, The belfries of all Christtendom Had roll' d along th' unbroken song

Of peace on earth, good will to men.

3. And in despair I bow' d my head: "There is no peace on earth," I said, "For hate is strong, and mocks the song Of peace on earth, good will to men."

4. Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:

"God is not dead, nor doth He sleep; The wrong shall fail, the right prevail, With peace on earth good will to men."

5. Till, ringing, singing on its way, The world revolved from night to day, A voice, a chime, a chant sublime, Of peace on earth, good will to men.

2. The King of Kings to us is giv' n, The Lord of earth and King of Heav' n;

The King of Kings to us is giv' n, The Lord of earth and King of Heav' n; Angels and men with joy may sing Of blest Jesus, their newborn King.

3. So how on earth can men be sad, When Jesus comes to make us glad? So how on earth can men be sad, When Jesus comes to make us glad? From all our sins to set us free, Buying for us our liberty.

4. From out the darkness have we light, Which makes the angels sing this night: From out the darkness have we light, Which makes the angels sing this night "Glory to God, His peace to men, And good will, evermore! Amen."

2. Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining, Ordaining, maintaining his kingdom divine;So from the beginning the fight we were winning:

Thou, Lord, wast at our side: all glory be thine!

3. We all do extol thee, thou leader triumphant, And pray that thou still our defender wilt be. Let thy congregation escape tribulation: Thy Name be ever praised! O Lord, make us free!
