- God rest you merry, gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay,
Remember Christ our Saviour
Was born on Christmas Day;
To save us all from Satan’s pow’r
When we were gone astray.
Refrain: 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.
