God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 had gone astray

[Refrain]
O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

[Verse 2]
In Bethlehem, in Israel
This blessed babe was born
And laid within a manger
Upon this blessed morn
The which his mother Mary
Did nothing take in scorn

[Refrain]
O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
[Refrain]
O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Good tidings of comfort and joy

[Verse 3]
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

[Refrain]
O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Good tidings of comfort and joy
Good tidings of comfort and joy
