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 pow'r
When we were gone astray.
O tidings of comfort and joy
In Bethlehem in Judea
This blessed babe was born
And layed within a manger upon this blessed morn
That which his mother Mary did nothing takin' scorn
O tidings of comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
From God our heavenly Father
A blessed angel came;
And unto certain shepherds
Brought tiding of the same;
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by name.
O tidings of comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
Instrumental
God rest you merry, gentlemen;
Let nothing you dismay.
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas Day;
To save us all from Satan's pow'r
When we were gone astray.
O tidings of comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
God rest you merry, gentlemen
God rest you merry, gentlemen...
