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 pow’r when we were gone astray
O, tidings of comfort and joy
In Bethlehem, in Israel this blessed Babe was born
And laid within a manger upon this blessed morn;
Of which His mother Mary did nothing take in scorn
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
"Fear not then,” said the angel, “let nothing you affright.
This day is born a Savior, of a pure Virgin bright,
To free all those who trust in Him from Satan's pow’r and might."
O, tidings of comfort and joy
Joy, Joy, Joy
Joy, Joy, Joy
Joy, Joy, Joy,
Comfort and Joy, Joy, Joy
Comfort and Joy, Joy, Joy
Joy! Comfort and Joy, Comfort and Joy
Comfort and Joy, Comfort and Joy
Comfort and Joy, Comfort and Joy
O, star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light
Joy, Joy, Joy
Comfort and Joy, Joy, Joy
Oh, we three kings of Orient are, bearing gifts we traverse afar.
Field and fountain, moor and mountain, following yonder star
Glorious now, behold Him arise, King and God and sacrifice.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Sounds through the earth and sky.
