God rest ye merry gentlemen. Let nothing you dismay. Oh, Jesus Christ our Savior. Was born on Christmas Day. To save us all from Satan's power. When we were gone astray. Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy. Oh, 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. 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. Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy. Oh, 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. This son of God to find. Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy. Oh, 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. Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy. Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
