Verse 1
D
Good King Wenceslas
looked out
G
D
On the feast of Stephen,
When the snow lay round about,
A
D
Deep and crisp and even.
Brightly shown the moon that night,
A
D
Though the frost was cruel,
A
When a poor man came in sight,
D
Gathering winter fuel.
E
D
Verse 2
D
Hither, page, and stand by me.
G
D
If thou know it telling:
Yonder peasant, who is he?
G
D
Where and what his dwelling?
Sire, he lives a good league hence,
Underneath the mountain,
Right against the forest fence
A
D
By Saint Agnes fountain.
Verse 3
D
Bring me flesh, and bring me wine.
Bring me pine logs hither.
Thou and I will see him dine
When we bear the thither.
Page and monarch, forth they went,
A
D
Forth they went together
A
Through the rude wind's wild lament
D
A
D
G

And the bitter weather.
Verse 4
D
Sire, the night is darker now,
G

And the wind blows stronger.
Fails my heart, I know not how.
G
D
I can go no longer.
A

Ark my footsteps my good page,
A

Tread thou in them boldly:
A
Thou shalt find the winter's rage
D
Freeze thy blood less coldly.

Verse 5
In his master's step he trod,
G
D
Where the snow lay dented.
Heat was in the very sod
G
D
Which the saint had printed.
Therefore, Christian men, be sure,
A
D
Wealth or rank possessing,
Ye who now will bless the poor
A
D
G
Shall yourselves find blessing
