Lyrics
God rest ye merry gentleman, let nothing you dismay
For Jesus Christ our saviour, was born on this day
To save us all from Satan's power when we gone astray
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
The shepherds at these tidings rejoiced much in mind
And left their flocks a-feeding in tempest, storm and wind
And went to Bethlehem straight-way, the blessed babe to find
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy, o tidings of comfort and joy
