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 that is our father The blessed Angels came Unto some certain Shepherds With tidings of the same:
That he was born in Bethlehem The Son of God by Name.
O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
Now when they came to Bethlehem Where our sweet Savior lay,
They found Him in a manger, Where oxen feed on hay
The blessed virgin kneeling down, Unto the Lord did pray.
O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
With sudden joy and gladness
The shepherds were beguiled
To see the babe of Israel before his mother mild Oh then with joy and cheerfulness
Rejoice each mothers' child
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
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
