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 power
When we were gone astray (Oh tidings of comfort and joy)
(Comfort and joy, o tidings of comfort and joy) In Bethlehem in Jewry
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)
