Traditional English carol, 18th cent. Public Domain
Arrangement by Chris Kuntz

lyrics


In Bethlehem, in Israel,
This blessed Babe was born
And laid within a manger
Upon this blessed morn
The baby's mother Mary
Did nothing take in scorn
O tidings of comfort and joy.

"Fear not then," then said the Angel,
"Dear shepherd do not fright,
This day is born a Savior
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.

And when they came to Bethlehem
Where our dear Saviour lay,
They found Him in a manger,
Where oxen feed on hay;
His Mother Mary kneeling down,
Unto the Lord did pray.
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.


God rest ye merry, gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember, 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
