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 were gone astray



chorus: 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,
