[00:28.33]God rest ye merry, gentlemen,
[00:31.11]Let nothing you dismay,
[00:33.87]Remember Christ our Savior
[00:36.69]Was born on Christmas day,
[00:39.52]To save us all from Satan's pow'r
[00:42.64]When we were gone astray;
[00:44.87]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[00:49.26]Comfort and joy,
[00:50.62]O tidings of comfort and joy.
[01:25.09]"Fear not," then said the angel "
[01:27.62]"Let nothing you affright"
[01:30.44]This day is born a saviour
[01:33.26]Of a pure virgin bright
[01:36.04]To free all those who trust in him
[01:39.06]From Satan's pow'r and might"
[01:41.53]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[01:45.62]Comfort and joy;
[01:46.93]O tidings of comfort and joy!
[02:21.01]The shepherds at those tidings
[02:23.81]Rejoiced much in mind,
[02:26.29]And left their flocks a-feeding,
[02:28.91]In tempest, storm, and wind,
[02:31.73]And went to Bethlehem straightway
[02:34.65]This blessed babe to find:
[02:37.03]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[02:40.96]Comfort and joy,
[02:42.32]O tidings of comfort and joy.
[04:12.88]But when to Bethlehem they came,
[04:15.34]Whereat this infant lay
[04:17.91]They found him in a manger,
[04:21.10]Where oxen feed on hay;
[04:23.41]His mother Mary kneeling,
[04:26.25]Unto the Lord did pray:
[04:28.55]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[04:32.53]Comfort and joy,
[04:34.09]O tidings of comfort and joy.
[04:39.98]Now to the Lord sing praises,
[04:42.55]All you within this place, "
[04:45.23]And with true love and brotherhood "
[04:47.79]Each other now embrace; "
[04:50.57]This holy tide of Christmas
[04:53.24]All others doth deface:
[04:55.61]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[04:59.63]Comfort and joy,
[05:01.00]O tidings of comfort and joy
