god rest ye

god rest ye merry

gentlemen

let nothing you dismay

remember

christ

our saviour

was born on christmas day

to save us all from satan's power

when we had gone astray

o tidings of comfort and joy

comfort and joy

o tidings of comfort and joy

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

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

o tidings of comfort and joy

comfort and joy

o tidings of comfort and joy
