an old carol with new verses

 

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 had gone astray.

Oh tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy.

Tidings of comfort and joy.


God bless ye mischievous little kids, your joy is in the morn.

This is the day when the Christ the lord, our saviour was born.

Your lives will sing in praise of him, your work, your rest, your play.

Oh tidings of valour and faith, valour and faith.

Oh tidings of valour and faith.


God grace ye village maidens, you are a joy of life.

The holy one of Israel is with us here tonight.

You are the crown of his creation on this his holy day.

Oh tidings of wonder and light, wonder and light.

Oh tidings of wonder and light.


God pat ye birds n cats n dogs, let no man pull your tails.

Christmas with the animals is joyous without fail.

The Lord God made you cudd-il-y, all creatures sing his praise

Oh tidings of chirps, woofs and meyows, woofs and meyows.

Oh tidings of chirps, woofs and meyows.
