lyrics

If e'er I taste a mead so rich
that left its honey on my lips
Then I would pass my cup around
to every merry soul in town

Winter nights are long and cold
And now I see my fire has grown old
And so my mind returns again
to the baby born in Bethlehem

If e'er I taste a bird so fair
that left its essence in the air
Then I would pass my plate around
to every hungry soul in town

Winter nights are long and cold
And now I see my fire has grown old
And so my mind comes back around
to the baby born in a backwoods town

If e'er I taste a wine so deep
that carried me right back to sleep
Then I would pass my glass around
to every tired soul in town

Winter nights are long and cold
And now I see my fire has grown old
And so my mind returns again
to the precious babe in Bethlehem
And so my mind it rests again
on the prince who lies in Bethlehem
