Lyrics here:

Now the winter is come with his cold chilly breath
And the leaves do fall from the trees.
All nature is touched with the finger of death
And the streams to begin for to freeze.

When the wanton young boys on the water do slide
And the frost over-covers the moor.
When with health rich enjoy everything that is good
That's the time to remember the poor,
That's the time to remember the poor.

When the poor harmless hare to the woods may be chased
By the print he has left in the snow.
When our lips and our toes are turned blue with frost
And the sportsman a-shooting do go.

When a poor robin redbreast approaches out cot
And icicles hang on the door.
When the bright twinkling star proclaims a cold night
That's the time to remember the poor.
That's the time to remember the poor.

Oh the time will come nigh when the seasons on earth
All the world will agree with one voice.
All nations unite to salute a new morn
And the ends of the earth will rejoice.

When death is deprived of his cold chilly sting
And the grave is a terror no more.
When angels and men hallelujah shall sing
Then the rich will lie down with the poor
Then the rich will lie down with the poor.

Collected by S Baring Gould, arranged by C Green
