Ohhhh tidings of comfort and joy,

 

From God our heavenly Father, This blessed angel came

And unto certain Shepard’s, Brought tidings of the same

How that is Bethlehem was born, The Son of God by name

Ohhhh tidings of comfort and joy…(Em B Em B7 D..)

Em            B7     Em             B7       Em

We three kings of orient are, Bearing gifts we traves a fare

D       G        D         Em     D    Em B Em B7

Field and fountain Moor and mountain, following yonder star

 

 

Born a king of Bethlehem plain, Gold I bring to crown him again

King forever ceasing never, Over us all to reign

 

 

Frankincense to offer have I, Incense owns a deed tonight

Prayer and praising, all men raising, Worship Him God most High

(D…)

(Which brings us to the scariest verse of the song

This verse gives me nightmares)

 

Myrrh is mine, it’s bitter perfume, Brings to light of gatherin

doom

 

Sorrowing sighing bleeding dying, Sealed in a stone cold tomb

 

Em B Em B7 D

Ohhh star of wonder, star of night,

G                C      G  D/F#

Star with royal, beauty bright

C               D        Em     B Em B7..

Guide us to thy perfect light

 

 

    Em      B         Em B7      Em   C   Am D   G B7

God rest ye merry gentlemen, Let nothing you dis may
