“We Wish you a Merry Christmas” is a traditional English Christmas carol from English West Country. The greeting "a merry Christmas and a happy New Year" was being used as early at the 18th century, as was the practice of wealthy members of the community giving treats to carolers, however, the tune was made famous during the 19th century and its origins are unclear.

This arrangement comes from: 33 Christmas Carols for 3 Recorders, arr. John S. Ritts-Turner
