God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen ---------------------------- God rest ye merry gentlemen, Let nothing you dismay, Remember Christ our Saviour 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!
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.
[Chorus]
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.
