Traditional - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen lyrics
rate meGod rest ye merry, gentlemen<br />
Let nothing you dismay<br />
Remember, Christ, our Saviour<br />
Was born on Christmas day<br />
To save us all from Satan's power<br />
When we were gone astray<br />
<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
Comfort and joy<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
<br />
In Bethlehem, in Israel<br />
This blessed Babe was born<br />
And laid within a manger<br />
Upon this blessed morn<br />
The which His Mother Mary<br />
Did nothing take in scorn<br />
<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
Comfort and joy<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
<br />
From God our Heavenly Father<br />
A blessed Angel came<br />
And unto certain Shepherds<br />
Brought tidings of the same<br />
How that in Bethlehem was born<br />
The Son of God by Name<br />
<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
Comfort and joy<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
<br />
"Fear not then", said the Angel<br />
"Let nothing you affright<br />
This day is born a Saviour<br />
Of a pure Virgin bright<br />
To free all those who trust in Him<br />
From Satan's power and might"<br />
<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
Comfort and joy<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
<br />
The shepherds at those tidings<br />
Rejoiced much in mind<br />
And left their flocks a-feeding<br />
In tempest, storm and wind<br />
And went to Bethlehem straightway<br />
The Son of God to find<br />
<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
Comfort and joy<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
<br />
And when they came to Bethlehem<br />
Where our dear Saviour lay<br />
They found Him in a manger<br />
Where oxen feed on hay<br />
His Mother Mary kneeling down<br />
Unto the Lord did pray<br />
<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
Comfort and joy<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
<br />
Now to the Lord sing praises<br />
All you within this place<br />
And with true love and brotherhood<br />
Each other now embrace<br />
This holy tide of Christmas<br />
All other doth deface<br />
<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy<br />
Comfort and joy<br />
O tidings of comfort and joy
