Good Christian, fear; for sinners here the silent Word is pleading Chorus So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh come, peasant, King, to own him; The King of kings salvation brings, let loving hearts enthrone Him Chorus Version 2 Alas, my love, you do me wrong, To cast me off discourteously For I have loved you well and long, Delighting in your company Greensleeves was all my joy Greensleeves was my delight, Greensleeves was my heart of gold, And who but my lady greensleeves Your vows you've broken, like my heart, Oh, why did you so enrapture me? Now I remain in a world apart But my heart remains in captivity I have been ready at your hand, To grant whatever you would crave, I have both wagered life and land, Your love and good-will for to have If you intend thus to disdain, It does the more enrapture me, And even so, I still remain A lover in captivity My men were clothed all in green, And they did ever wait on thee; All this was gallant to be seen, And yet thou wouldst not love me Thou couldst desire no earthly thing, but still thou hadst it readily Thy music still to play and sing; And yet thou wouldst not love me Well, I will pray to God on high, that thou my constancy mayst see, And that yet once before I die, Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me Ah, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu, To God I pray to prosper thee, For I am still thy lover true, Come once again and love me Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Hes A Thief, Here I Am, Hes A Liar, Hey, Hold Her In Your Hand, Hold Me, Hold On, Hold On to My Love, Home For The Holidays, House Of Lords, House Of Shame, House Without Windows, How Old Are You, How To Fall In Love Pt 1, I Am Your Driver, I Believe In Miracles, I Cant Help It, I Cant Let You Go, I Cant See Anything but You, I Cant Help It, I Cant Let You Go, I Cant See Nobody, I Could Not Love You More, I Dont Wanna Be the One, I Dont Know Why I Bother With Myself, I Dont Wanna Be the One, I Just Dont Like To Be Alone, I Just dont Like To Be Alone, I Just Want To Be Your Everything, I Lay Down Die, I O I O, I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus, I Should Have Stayed In Bed, I Started A Joke (Live), I Still Love You, I Surrender, I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas, I Was A Lover , A Leader Of Man, I Will, I Will Always Love You, I Will Be There, Id Like To Leave If I May, Ill Be Home For Christmas, Ill Kiss Your Memory, Ill Know What To Do, Im Not Wearing Any Make up, Im Not Wearing Any Make-up, Im Satisfied, Im Watching You, Ive Decided To Join The Air Force, Other BEE GEES song Lyrics 2 Years On Lyrics Alone Again Lyrics And The Sun Will Shine Lyrics August October Lyrics Back Home Lyrics Birdie Told Me Lyrics Black Diamond Lyrics Bury Me Down By The River Lyrics Daytime Girl Lyrics Dearest Lyrics Dont Want To Live Inside Myself Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Bee Gees, The Lyrics Bee Gees (Robin Gibb) Lyrics Beeds Lyrics Beefheart Captain Lyrics BeeGees Lyrics Beelow Lyrics Beenie Man Lyrics Beenie Man & Mya Lyrics Beenie Man F/ A.R.P.
