God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen (English Traditional Christmas Carol) |
God rest ye merry, gentlemen |
Let nothing you dismay |
Oh Jesus 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 |
Now to the Lord sing praises |
All you within this place |
And with true love and brotherhood |
Each other now embrace; |
This holy tide of Christmas |
All other doth deface |
O tidings of comfort and joy |
Comfort and joy |
O tidings of comfort and joy |
