Whence Is That Goodly Fragrance Flowing? (Arr. Sir David Willcocks)
Whence is that goodly fragrance flowing?
Stealing our senses all away
Never the like did come a-blowing
Shepherds in flow'ry fields in May
Whence is that goodly fragrance flowing?
Stealing our senses all away
What is that light so brilliant, breaking?
Here in the night across our eyes
Never so bright, the day-star waking
Started to climb the morning skies
What is that light so brilliant, breaking
Here in the night across our eyes
Bethlehem, there in manger lying
Find your Redeemer haste away
Run ye with eager footsteps vieing
Worship the Saviour born today
Bethlehem, there in manger lying
Find your Redeemer haste away
Praise to the Lord of all creation
Glory to God, the fount of grace
May peace abide in every nation
Goodwill in men of every race
Praise to the Lord of all creation
Glory to God, the fount of grace
Stealing our senses all away
Never the like did come a-blowing
Shepherds in flow'ry fields in May
Whence is that goodly fragrance flowing?
Stealing our senses all away
What is that light so brilliant, breaking?
Here in the night across our eyes
Never so bright, the day-star waking
Started to climb the morning skies
What is that light so brilliant, breaking
Here in the night across our eyes
Bethlehem, there in manger lying
Find your Redeemer haste away
Run ye with eager footsteps vieing
Worship the Saviour born today
Bethlehem, there in manger lying
Find your Redeemer haste away
Praise to the Lord of all creation
Glory to God, the fount of grace
May peace abide in every nation
Goodwill in men of every race
Praise to the Lord of all creation
Glory to God, the fount of grace
