God Rest Ye lyrics

[Chorus]
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

[Refrain]
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

[Interlude]

[Verse 1]
In Bethlehem, in Israel
This blessed Babe was born
And laid within a manger
Upon this blessed morn
His holy Mother Mary
Did nothing take in scorn

[Refrain]
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
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

[Refrain]
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
