God rest ye merry gentlemen, 
let nothing you dismay 
Remember 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 

In Bethlehem, in Jewry, 
this blessed babe was born 
And laid within a manger, 
upon a Christmas morn' 
That 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
