Nat King Cole

Nathaniel Adams Coles (March 17, 1919 – February 15, 1965), known professionally as Nat King Cole, was a musician who first came to prominence as a leading jazz pianist. He owes most of his popular musical fame to his soft baritone voice, which he used to perform in big band and jazz genres. He was one of the first black Americans to host a television variety show, and has maintained worldwide popularity since his death. more »

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
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 in that Bethlehem was born
The son of God by name

Fear not, then said the angel
Let nothing you affright
This day is born a savior
Of a pure virgin bright

To free all those who trust in him
From Satan's pow'r and might
The shepherds at those tidings
Rejoiced much in mind,
And left their flocks a-feeding
In tempest, storm and wind

And went to Bethlehem straightaway
This blessed babe to find
But when to Bethlehem they came
Whereat this infant lay
They found him in a manger
Where oxen feed on hay

His mother Mary kneeling
Unto the Lord did pray
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 others doth deface
