G Em C G Em C G
[Verse 1]
G Em
Good King Wenceslas looked out
C G
On the Feast of Stephen
G Em
When the snow lay 'round about
C G
Deep and crisp and even
G Em
Brightly shone the moon that night
C G
Though the frost was cruel
G Em
When a poor man came in sight
C C
Gath'ring winter fuel
[Interlude]
G Em C G Em C G
[Verse 2]
G Em
Bring me mead and bring me wine
C G
Bring me pine logs hither
G Em
Thou and I will see him dine
C G
When we bear him thither
G Em
Page and monarch forth they went
C G
Forth they went together
G Em
Through the rude wind's wild lament
C Em
And the bitter weather
[Interlude]
G Em C G Em C G
[Verse 3]
G Em
In his master's steps he trod
C G
Where the snow lay dinted
G Em
Heat was in the very sod
C G
Which the Saint had printed
G Em
Therefore Christian folk be sure
C G
Wealth or rank possessing
G Em
Ye who now will bless the poor
C G
Shall yourselves find blessing
[Chorus 2x 2x]
G Em C G
Let our kindness shine a light
G Em C G
Let our kindness shine a light
G Em C G
Let our kindness shine a light
G Em C G
Let our kindness shine
