Annie Lennox - As Joseph Was A Walking (The Cherry Tree Carol) Lyrics
As Joseph was a-walking
He heard an Angel sing:
"This night shall be the birth time
Our gracious Heavenly King;
In housen nor in hall,
Nor in the place of Paradise,
But in an ox's stall."
Allelujah!
"He neither shall be clothed
In purple nor in pall;
But all in fair white linen
As wear sweet babies all.
He neither shall be rocked
In silver nor in gold;
But in a wooden cradle
That rocks upon the mould.
"He neither shall be christen's
In white wine nor in red;
But with the fair spring water
With which we were christ'ned."
As Joseph was a-walking
He heard an Angel sing:
"This night shall be the birth time
Our gracious Heavenly King;
Allelujah!

Every Chistmas day morning I wake up with this album. Mrs. Lennox shows us the Chistmas Spirit.
Thank you Geoff and thank you Annie.
Thank you Annie! ❤️
Beautiful! Merry Chrstmas🎄🎄🎄
Annie made this because she wanted to recall all the hymn singing she did as a child and I think it wouldn’t be Christmas without it
So Love this ...
Best Christmas album in years. I love this and Profokiev, Mike Oldfield and John Williams Home Alone work this time of year. I think popular culture and its music is a conspiracy against the human soul.

You're welcome!
I bought this albun when it was released in 2010 became my Xmas sountrack ever after. I love it.
Thank you for this. With love in Christ!, AND Merry Christmas to you.
You're welcome, and Merry Christmas to you as well!
I have only discovered this album. Thank you Annie Lennox.... Uplifting and now a firm family favourite. Merry Christmas.
Glory be to the eurythmic strings and her voice alongside choirs mix a joy embracing love ones like teardrops ringing out a smile somehow and somewhere under the red willow' s simple gift. Feliz Navidad
2018 <3
Wonderful, passionate interpretation of some of the most evocative of songs celebrating the wonderful truth of Christ's incarnation. Brings floods of memories from childhood onward. Thank you for uploading, and thanks to the Lord, the Maker of all, becoming man for love of us. A virtual embrace of "true love and brotherhood" to all listeners. Have a blessed Christmas.
You're welcome!
Universal Child gives me chills every single time I hear it. I have everything she has ever recorded, absolutely brilliant voice and artist.
Best version of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" EVER!!!!!
Just love this album.
Only three songs into the album and I've already ordered it from amazon. How has this not received more attention? What an underrated Christmas collection. Some tracks are moving, traditional, and deeply inspired. Others; urgent and haunting. It's perfect.
totally!
very Annie like =)
Brilliant
This is definitely a painfully neglected album! It deserves much much more hits and thumbs.
Thank you very much for uploading it. I think I'll buy the album.
You're welcome!
One of the best Christmas albums ever.
