| Lyrics: | Oh come all you sailor men Row your boats in For the seas they are icy The shore calls you in And come all you fisher men Lay you nets down The lights and warmth beckon Gaudete! Shouts the town All around this old harbour The voices resound Words of peace and good will Go to all who are found The feast will be royal The company sound Though the waves are a-lapping You walk on home ground Gaudete! Gaudete! The choir sings aloud Gaudete! Gaudete! Open arms will surround What more could we ask for At this time of year? Gaudete! Gaudete! For the Yule tide is here. |

'Gorgeous vocals that come intimately to the forefront; the harmonies complimenting each other beautifully whilst each voice individually grabs and ravels you in, forcing you to listen intently' - For Folk's Sake (extract from EP review)
