Good King Wenceslas — Christmas Program

A Christmas program by Rev. Bernhard Seter

Good King Wenceslas looked out

On the Feast of Stephen

When the snow lay round about

Deep and crisp and even

Brightly shone the moon that night

Though the frost was cruel

When a poor man came in sight

Gath’ring winter fuel.

Christmas Carol


We’re all familiar with the carol, but what does it have to do with the message of Christ’s birth? Is it a beneficial song include in a Christmas worship service?

Good King Wenceslas (It’s all about Mercy) is a children’s Christmas program available from the LCMS. Written by the Rev. Bernhard Seter in formats for use by Sunday schools or Lutheran parochial schools, the program is offered as free pdf downloads.
