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) (Oh tidings of comfort and joy) (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}
