Mvmt II, "Begin and Never Cease" Songtext

von The Oh Hellos

While shepherds watched their flocks by night
All seated on the ground
The angel of the Lord came down
And glory shone around
"fear not," said he, for mighty dread
Had seized their troubled minds
"glad tidings of great joy I bring,
To you and all mankind!"

O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

"to you in David's town this day
Is born of David's line
The Savior, who is Christ the Lord,
And this shall be the sign:
The Heavenly Babe you there shall find
To human view displayed
And meanly wrapped in swathing bands
And in a manger laid"

O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

Noel! Noel!
Noel! Noel!
Born is the King of Israel!

O come, let us adore Him!
O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!

"all glory be to God on high,
And to the earth be peace!
Good will henceforth from God to man:
Begin and never cease!"
