About the Carol

John Mason Neale (1818–1866) wrote this famous story-carol in 1853, drawing on the legend of the charitable Duke Wenceslas. It is sung to Tempus Adest Floridum, a tune from the 1582 collection Piae Cantiones.

Often linked with Boxing Day, its tale of kindness in winter invites practical love in Christ’s Name. The steady melody and memorable story encourage generosity and care for the poor.
