Interpretation
editThe four who stood at the door. How was it determined that this refers to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John? What door? It was always my understanding that the four are Mary of Bethany, Mary the Mother of Jesus, Salome, and Joanna, the four women who came to the door of Jesus' tomb the day after his resurrection. Any sourcing? 69.62.243.48 (talk) 23:47, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

Lyrics? Music?
editI always have to wonder why, with a public domain song like this, we don't always have at least one full set of lyrics, as well as at leats a basic "lead sheet" staff notation showing the melody, and perhaps harmonic progression? Seems like that should be a common standard for fall olk and other public domain songs. 67.206.183.139 (talk) 03:32, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
List of artists
editI’ve just added The Spinners to the list of artists who have recorded this song, as it’s on their 1972 Christmas album, Sing Out, Shout With Joy. The article currently has a long list of artists, but no corroboration; should we have some criteria for inclusion? A list format, with when they recorded it, and where, for example? And maybe have them in some order (I'd go for chronological)? Swanny18 (talk) 14:48, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
