[00:00.45]God rest ye merry, gentlemen,
[00:02.87]Let nothing you dismay,
[00:05.69]Remember Christ our Savior
[00:08.33]Was born on Christmas day,
[00:11.09]To save us all from Satan's pow'r
[00:13.97]When we were gone astray;
[00:16.09]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[00:20.02]Comfort and joy,
[00:21.39]O tidings of comfort and joy.
[00:54.19]From God our heavenly Father
[00:56.88]A blessed angel came.
[00:59.49]And unto certain shepherds
[01:02.27]Brought tidings of the same,
[01:04.91]How that in Bethlehem was born
[01:07.63]The Son of God by name:
[01:09.99][00:43.18]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[01:13.84][00:47.12]Comfort and joy,
[01:15.15][00:48.34]O tidings of comfort and joy.
[01:20.97]"Fear not," then said the angel "
[01:23.60]"Let nothing you affright"
[01:26.64]This day is born a saviour
[01:29.17]Of a pure virgin bright
[01:31.94]To free all those who trust in him
[01:34.61]From Satan's pow'r and might"
[01:36.93]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[01:40.72]Comfort and joy;
[01:42.13]O tidings of comfort and joy!
[00:27.17]In Bethlehem, in Israel
[00:29.69]This blessed Babe was born
[00:32.58]And laid within a manger
[00:35.39]Upon this blessed morn
[00:37.88]The which His Mother Mary
[00:40.60]Did nothing take in scorn
[01:48.08]The shepherds at those tidings
[01:50.70]Rejoiced much in mind,
[01:53.33]And left their flocks a-feeding,
[01:56.06]In tempest, storm, and wind,
[01:58.73]And went to Bethlehem straightway
[02:01.56]This blessed babe to find:
[02:04.14]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[02:07.72]Comfort and joy,
[02:08.98]O tidings of comfort and joy.
[02:14.57]And when to Bethlehem they came,
[02:17.56]Where at this infant lay
[02:20.23]They found him in a manger,
[02:22.90]Where oxen feed on hay;
[02:25.85]His mother Mary kneeling,
[02:28.03]Unto the Lord did pray:
[02:30.74]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[02:34.67]Comfort and joy,
[02:36.00]O tidings of comfort and joy.
[02:41.95]Now to the Lord sing praises,
[02:44.64]All you within this place, "
[02:47.27]And with true love and brotherhood "
[02:49.98]Each other now embrace; "
[02:52.82]This holy tide of Christmas
[02:55.39]All others doth deface:
[02:57.63]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[03:01.56]Comfort and joy,
[03:03.07]O tidings of comfort and joy
