Let nothing you dismay
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas Day
To save us all from Satan’s pow’r
When we were gone astray
Chorus
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh 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.
Chorus
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh 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.
Chorus
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
This blessed babe to find (The Son of God to find)
Chorus
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
- But when to Bethlehem they came,
Whereat this infant lay, or (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.
Chorus
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 efface.
Chorus
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy.
