Lyrics A New Year Carol - Benjamin Britten , The Choir of Canterbury Cathedral , David Flood

Here we bring new water
From the well so clean
For to worship God
In this happy new year

Sing, hear ye draw
Sing, hear ye draw
The water and the wine
The seven bright gold bars
And the new gold stars to shine

Sing, play, O fair maid
With gold upon her toe
Of a new year's store
And let the new year go

Sing, hear ye draw
Sing, hear ye draw
The water and the wine
The seven bright gold bars
And the new gold stars to shine

Sing, play, O fair maid
With gold upon her chin
Of a new year's store
And let the new year in

Sing, hear ye draw
Sing, hear ye draw
The water and the wine
The seven bright gold bars
And the new gold stars to shine
