From God our heavenly father A blessed angel came And unto certain shepherds Brought tiding 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 a pure virgin 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 brotherood Each other now embrace This holy tide of Christmas All others doth deface O tidings of comfort and joy comfort and joy O tidings of comfort and joy O tidings of comfort and joy
