Here We Come A-Wassailing 
(Traditional)



Here we come a-wassailing among the leaves so green
Here we come a-wandering, so fair to be seen

Love and joy come to you, and to you our wassail, too
And God bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God send you a Happy New Year

We are not daily beggars that beg from door to door
But we are neighbours' children whom you have seen before

Love and joy come to you, and to you our wassail, too
And God bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God send you a Happy New Year

Good master and mistress, as you sit by the fire
Pray think of us poor children who wander in the mire

Love and joy come to you, and to you our wassail, too
And God bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God send you a Happy New Year

We have a little purse made of ratching leather skin
We want a little sixpence to line it well within

Love and joy come to you, and to you our wassail, too
And God bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God send you a Happy New Year

Bring us out a table and spread it with a cloth
Bring us out a cheese and of your Christmas loaf

Love and joy come to you, and to you our wassail, too
And God bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God send you a Happy New Year

God bless the master of this house, likewise the mistress, too
And all the little children that round the table go

Love and joy come to you, and to you our wassail, too
And God bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God send you a Happy New Year
