God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen

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 a-stray

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.

"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 power and might."

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 others doth deface.

O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy!
O tidings of comfort and joy
