| God rest ye merry, gentlemen
|
| Let nothing you dismay
|
| Oh Jesus Christ, our Saviour
|
| Was born on Christmas day
|
| To save us all from Satan’s power
|
| When we were gone astray
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| Comfort and joy
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| In Bethlehem, in Israel
|
| This blessed Babe was born
|
| And laid within a manger
|
| Upon this blessed morn
|
| The which His Mother Mary
|
| Did nothing take in scorn
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| Comfort and joy
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| From God our Heavenly Father
|
| A blessed Angel came;
|
| And unto certain Shepherds
|
| Brought tidings of the same:
|
| How that in Bethlehem was born
|
| The Son of God by Name
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| Comfort and joy
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| «Fear not then, «said the Angel
|
| «Let nothing you affright
|
| This day is born a Saviour
|
| Of a pure Virgin bright
|
| To free all those who trust in Him
|
| From Satan’s power and might.»
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| Comfort and joy
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| The shepherds at those tidings
|
| Rejoiced much in mind
|
| And left their flocks a-feeding
|
| In tempest, storm and wind:
|
| And went to Bethlehem straightway
|
| The Son of God to find
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| Comfort and joy
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| Now to the Lord sing praises
|
| All you within this place
|
| And with true love and brotherhood
|
| Each other now embrace;
|
| This holy tide of Christmas
|
| All other doth deface
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy
|
| Comfort and joy
|
| O tidings of comfort and joy |
