O 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 Mar-y did nothing take in scorn.
>From God our heav'nly 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.
