    To save us all from Satan's power
    When we were gone astray
    O tidings of comfort and joy
    Comfort and joy
    O tidings of comfort and joy
    From God our Heavenly 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
    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 brotherhood
    Each other now embrace
    This holy tide of Christmas
    All other doth deface
    O tidings of comfort and joy
    Comfort and joy
    O tidings of comfort and joy

    Now, to the Lord sing praises,
    All ye within this place,
    And with true love and brotherhood,
    Each other now embrace ❤️

    I often think of the person who wrote this song - such a timeless gift to humanity, and since we don't know for sure who to thank for this gift, my thanks go to you, Andrew, for singing it so tenderly... you just simply own it.
