God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen by St. Philip's Boys' Choir
Oh tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Oh 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
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,
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.
"Fear not," then said the angel," let nothing you affright
This day is born a Saviour of Virgin pure and bright
To free all those who trust in Him from Satan's power and might"
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 deface
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.
O tidings of comfort and joy.
