Said the night wind to the little lamb, "Do you see what I see?" Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy, "Do you hear what I hear?" WHAT DID THE SHEPHERD BOY THEN SAY to the mighty king?
Late in Time behold him come,
Offspring of a Virgin's Womb.
Veil'd in Flesh the Godhead see;
Hail th'Incarnate Deity!
These theologically and anatomically specific lyrics from a 1739 hymn remain in the modern version, unlike the titular world "welkin," an archaic term for the firmament or heavens. By WHAT OPENING LINE is this carol now popularly known?
Fast away the old year passes.
Hail the new year, lads and lasses.
Sing we joyous, all together,
Heedless of the wind and weather.
WHAT NINE-SYLLABLE REFRAIN is omitted (perhaps more than once) from the lines above?
What ALTERNATE TITLE of the hymn "O Come All Ye Faithful" is taken from the first line of the Latin text, the first verse of which is often sung as the third verse of modern (otherwise) English settings?
Glorious now behold Him arise,
King and God and sacrifice.
"Alleluia! Alleluia!"
Rings through the earth and skies.
The three verses preceding this one describe WHAT THREE ITEMS, famously identified with the song's subject?
The 1948 song "Sleigh Ride" describes a quaint winter scene that might grace, according to the lyric, "a picture print by" WHAT 19TH CENTURY DUO, prolific makers of color engravings?
The carol "Good King Wenceslas" mentions a fountain named for WHAT BOHEMIAN SAINT, somewhat surprising given that she was in fact one of Wenceslas I's descendants, born some 300 years later? (First name only required.)
Nails, spear shall pierce him through,
The cross be borne for me, for you.
Hail, hail the word made flesh,
The babe, the son of Mary!
You probably know what child this is, but to WHAT SIXTEENTH-CENTURY FOLK TUNE are these lyrics usually sung?
In the second verse of "Angels We Have Heard on High," noted for its melismatic "Gloria" chorus, the lyric asks, "Shepherds, why this ___?" filling in the blank with the name of WHAT MEMBER OF THE X-MEN?
Chains shall he break,
For the slave is our brother,
And in his name
All oppression shall cease.
These seemingly abolitionist lines were translated from French in 1855, but are rarely heard in modern performances of WHAT SONG, a popular soloist feature?
Though this carol by James Pierpont has come to be associated with generic winter imagery, the full text reads more like a pre-combustion-engine entry in the 'Fast and Furious' franchise, complete with showboating drivers and vehicular disaster. WHAT PHRASE (technically a command) serves as the hook to this ubiquitous song?
No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make his blessings flow
Far as the curse is found.
You've heard one, two, or even three other verses, but the stanza above is often omitted from WHAT EXUBERANT CAROL?
