God rest ye 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 had gone astray Oh, tidings of comfort and joy Comfort and joy Oh, 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 Oh, tidings of comfort and joy Comfort and joy Oh, tidings of comfort and joy But when to Bethlehem they came Where our dear Savior lay They found Him in the manger Where oxen feed on hay His Mother Mary kneeled And to the Lord did pray Oh, tidings of comfort and joy Comfort and joy Oh, tidings of comfort and joy Comfort and joy, comfort and joy
