God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

God rest ye merry gentlemen

Let nothing you dismay

For jesus christ our saviour

Was born on christmas day

To save us all from satan's powers

When we were gone astray

Glad tidings of comfort and joy

Comfort and joy

Glad tidings of comfort and joy

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

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

Fear not then said the angel

Let nothing you affright

This day is born a saviour

Of a pure virgin bright

To free all those who trust in him

From satan's power and might

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
