Here We Come A Wassailing Acapella Choir with Lyrics of Traditional Christmas Carol sung by the US Army Band Chorus, verses 1 and 7 repeated. “Here We Come A-wassailing” (or “Here We Come A-caroling”) is a traditional English Christmas carol and New Year song, which was composed c. 1850. The term 'wassailing', refers to door to door carol singing wishing neighbors and residents good health. Good spirited householders would offer the singers a drink from their wassail bowl which would contain a warming concoction of beer, apples, spice and mead. The song has been recorded by range of performers including - The Ray Conniff singers, Perry Como and the Ray Charles Singers, The King's Singers, Harry Secombe, and Kate Rusby. This A Capella vocal recording is by the famous US Army Band Chorus.
