| Lyrics: | 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 were 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
The which His Mother Mary
Did nothing take in scorn
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
"Fear not then," said the
Angel,
"Let nothing you affright,
This day is born a Saviour
Of a pure Virgin
bright,
To free all those who trust in Him
From Satan's power and might."
O tidings of
comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
The shepherds at
those tidings
Rejoiced much in mind,
And left their flocks a-feeding
In tempest, storm
and wind:
And went to Bethlehem straightway
The Son of God to find.
O tidings of comfort
and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
And when they came to
Bethlehem
Where our dear Saviour lay,
They found Him in a manger,
Where oxen feed on
hay;
His Mother Mary kneeling down,
Unto the Lord did pray.
O tidings of comfort and
joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
Now to the Lord sing
praises,
All you within this place,
And with true love and brotherhood-aca |
