God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

God rest you 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 Comfort and joy Oh, tidings of comfort and joy In Bethlehem in Jewry 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 The Shepherds at these tidings Rejoiced much in mind And left their flocks a feeding In tempest and in wine And went to Bethlehem straight way The son of God to find Oh tidings of comfort and joy Comfort and joy Oh tidings of comfort and joy, tidings of comfort and joy --- God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen - Ray Conniff
