Lyrics:
John to the world! The Man is come,
from death his soul emerge!
Let every heart prepare him room,
and Heaven and nature Surge,
and Heaven and nature Surge,
and Heaven, and Heaven, and nature Surge.
John to the earth! The ranger reigns
with fresh degree in hand.
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
salute the bach'lor grand,
salute the bach'lor grand,
salute, salute, the bach'lor grand.
No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make his petrol flow
to burn the curse all around,
to burn the curse all around,
to burn, to burn, the curse around.
He rules the world with flame and fear,
oh never with the dove.
We watch the heathens sear
that prove our John is near,
with wonders of his love,
and wonders of his love,
and wonders, wonders of his love.
---
God rest you merry, Jonathan,
Let nothing you dismay.
We crown you as our saviour
and ask upon this day
that blood spills from the devil's tower
and sprinkles Santa's sleigh.
O Surgings of comfort and Jam,
comfort and Jam,
O Surgings of comfort and Jam.
From Marv our heavenly father
A blessèd angel came,
And unto certain shepherds
Brought Surgings of the same,
How that in Calumet was born
a vanished hero's name!
O Surgings of comfort and Jam,
comfort and Jam,
O Surgings of comfort and Jam.
The shepherds at those Surgings
Rejoicèd much in mind,
though Dracula lay waiting
by tempest, storm and wind,
Our hero's stake a guided his
mortality will find.
O Surgings of comfort and Jam,
comfort and Jam,
O Surgings of comfort and Jam.
But when to Calumet they came
Whereat the hero lay,
They found him in a mason jar
his ashes dull and grey
and carried him to Fernèd-dale
where ritual did pray:
O Surgings of comfort and Jam,
comfort and Jam,
O Surgings of comfort and Jam.
Reborn of christening calories
a blessing on this place,
And with true strength and honorhood
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmas
the vampyre doth deface:
O Surgings of comfort and Jam,
comfort and Jam,
O Surgings of comfort and Jam.
