The words were written by Willia Morris (1860)In a 16th century style, "Masters in This Hall" refers back to a simpler society when the poor, bringing news of Christ's birth to the "Masters in this Hall" was a warning to the proud.This song explains "raising up the poor and casting down the proud" is also contained in the song of the Virgin Mary as in Luke 1:51. This carol describes a poor man who wished to draw his master's attention to the birth of Christ by telling how he had met shepherds travelling to Bethlehem.
