Song by Matt Turk with Matter & Gaby Moreno<br /><br>

God rest ye merry, gentlemen<br>

Let nothing you dismay<br>

Remember, Christ, our Saviour<br>

Was born on Christmas day<br>

To save us all from Satan's power<br>

When we were gone astray<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy,<br>

Comfort and joy<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy<br>

<br>

In Bethlehem, in Israel,<br>

This blessed Babe was born<br>

And laid within a manger<br>

Upon this blessed morn<br>

The which His Mother Mary<br>

Did nothing take in scorn<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy,<br>

Comfort and joy<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy<br>

<br>

From God our Heavenly Father<br>

A blessed Angel came;<br>

And unto certain Shepherds<br>

Brought tidings of the same:<br>

How that in Bethlehem was born<br>

The Son of God by Name.<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy,<br>

Comfort and joy<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy<br>

<br>

"Fear not then," said the Angel,<br>

"Let nothing you affright,<br>

This day is born a Saviour<br>

Of a pure Virgin bright,<br>

To free all those who trust in Him<br>

From Satan's power and might."<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy,<br>

Comfort and joy<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy<br>

<br>

The shepherds at those tidings<br>

Rejoiced much in mind,<br>

And left their flocks a-feeding<br>

In tempest, storm and wind:<br>

And went to Bethlehem straightway<br>

The Son of God to find.<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy,<br>

Comfort and joy<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy<br>

<br>

And when they came to Bethlehem<br>

Where our dear Saviour lay,<br>

They found Him in a manger,<br>

Where oxen feed on hay;<br>

His Mother Mary kneeling down,<br>

Unto the Lord did pray.<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy,<br>

Comfort and joy<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy<br>

<br>

Now to the Lord sing praises,<br>

All you within this place,<br>

And with true love and brotherhood<br>

Each other now embrace;<br>

This holy tide of Christmas<br>

All other doth deface.<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy,<br>

Comfort and joy<br>

O tidings of comfort and joy<br>

<br>
