Lyrics
Mercedes (mit New Directions-Mädchen):
God rest ye merry, gentlemen let (Nothing you dismay)
Remember Christ our savior was (Born on Christmas Day)
To save us all from Satan's power (New Directions-Mädchen: Aaah...)
When we were gone astray
(O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy)
O tidings of comfort and joy (New Directions-Mädchen: tidings of joy)
Tina (mit Santana):
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
Quinn (mit New Directions-Mädchen):
(O tidings of comfort and joy) Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy (New Directions-Mädchen: Comfort and joy)
Santana (New Directions-Mädchen):
Oh, "Fear not" said the Angel (Ahh-ahh)
"Let nothing you affright" (Oh no)
This day is born a Saviour (This day)
Of pure Virgin bright (Virgin bright)
To free all those who trust in Him (To trust, in him)
From Satan's power and might (Power and might)
O tidings of comfort and joy, (Comfort and joy)
O tidings of comfort and joy
New Directions-Mädchen:
Of joy, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Of joy, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Joy, joy, joy, joy
Rachel:
Now to the Lord sing praises
All you within this place
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace (New Directions-Mädchen: Each other to embrace)
Rachel mit New Directions-Mädchen:
This holy tide of Christmas
All other doth deface
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
Rachel (New Directions-Mädchen):
Oh joy (Tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy)
Of joy (Tidings of comfort and joy)
We have gone astray
Rachel mit New Directions-Mädchen:
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
