I guess it goes back to when my Grandfather used to take me (as a child) out walking half an hour or so before the bells, he would have a half bottle with him, & everyone we met would get a wee heart warmer *.
If it happened that anyone recieving said succor, could, upon asking, sing, then they were invited in to join the party.
* In those bygone days of black & white, it used to be cold at New Year
