[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!
