[00:28.17]God rest ye merry, gentlemen,
[00:30.75]Let nothing you dismay
[00:33.58]Remember Christ our Saviour
[00:36.46]Was born on Christmas Day
[00:39.32]To save us all from Satan's power
[00:42.33]When we were gone astray.
[00:44.50]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[00:48.82]Comfort and joy;
[00:50.24]O tidings of comfort and joy!
[00:54.97]
[01:24.35]\"Fear not,\" then said the angel
[01:27.14]\"Let nothing you affright
[01:29.85]This day is born a saviour
[01:32.73]Of a pure virgin bright
[01:35.53]To free all those who trust in him
[01:38.44]From Satan's pow'r and might\"
[01:40.73]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[01:44.91]Comfort and joy;
[01:46.45]O tidings of comfort and joy!
[01:52.62]
[02:19.97]The shepherds at those tidings
[02:22.59]Rejoiced much in mind,
[02:25.34]And left their flocks a-feeding
[02:28.05]In tempest, storm and wind
[02:30.88]And went to Bethlehem straightaway
[02:33.81]This blessed babe to find
[02:36.30]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[02:40.01]Comfort and joy;
[02:41.65]O tidings of comfort and joy!
[02:46.36]
[04:11.43]But when to Bethlehem they came
[04:13.96]Whereat this infant lay
[04:16.46]They found him in a manger
[04:19.31]Where oxen feed on hay
[04:21.89]His mother Mary kneeling
[04:24.95]Unto the Lord did pray
[04:27.05]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[04:31.08]Comfort and joy;
[04:32.69]O tidings of comfort and joy!
[04:37.45]
[04:38.77]Now to the Lord sing praises
[04:41.16]All you within this place
[04:43.75]And with true love and brotherhood
[04:46.56]Each other now embrace
[04:49.10]This holy tide of Christmas
[04:51.95]All others doth deface
[04:54.23]O tidings of comfort and joy,
[04:58.22]Comfort and joy;
[04:59.74]O tidings of comfort and joy!
[05:05.14]
