God rest you merry gentlemen let nothing you dismay remember Christ our Savior was born on Christmas Day to save us all from Satan's pow'r when we were gone astray O tidings of comfort and joy comfort and Joy O tidings of comfort and joy In Bethlehem in Jewry this blessed Babe was born and laid within a manger upon this blessed morning 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 heav'nly 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 those tidings rejoiced much in mind and left their flocks a feeding in tempest storm and wind and went to Bethlehem straight way the Son of God to find O tidings of comfort and joy comfort and Joy O tidings of comfort and joy
