As Joseph Was A Walking Lyrics - A Christmas Cornucopia - Annie Lennox

As Joseph was a-walking he heard an Angel sing 

This night shall be the birth time of Christ the heavenly king 

As Joseph was a-walking he heard an Angel sing 

This night shall be the birth time of Christ the heavenly king 

He neither shall be borned in housen nor in hall 

Nor in the place of paradise but in an ox's stall 

He neither shall be clothed in purple nor in pall 

But in fair white linen as usen babies all 

He neither shall be rocked in silver nor in gold 

But in a wooden cradle that rocks upon the mold 

He neither shall be christen'd in white wine nor in red 

But in the fair spring water with which we were christened 

He neither shall be borned in housen nor in hall 

Nor in the place of paradise but in an ox's stall 

As Joseph was a-walking he heard the angel sing 

This night shall be the birth time of Christ the heavenly king 

Allelulah 

Allelulah

Allelulah 

Allelulah 

Allelulah
