God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen Lyrics

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! 



In Bethlehem, in Jewry This blessed babe was born And layed
within a manger Upon this blessed morn For which his mother Mary did nothing
take in scorn. 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 that in
Bethlehem was born The son of God by name. 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 others doth deface. O tidings
of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy O tidings of comfort and joy!
