God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen Songtext / Lyric

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

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy



In Bethlehem, in Jewry,

this blessed babe was born

And laid within a manger,

upon a Christmas morn'

That which his mother Mary

did nothing take in scorn



Oh, tidings of comfort and joy,

comfort and joy

Oh, 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



Oh, tidings of comfort and joy,

comfort and joy

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
