God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
Christmas Carols Lyrics

God rest ye merry, gentlemen,
May God provide peace and joy for you, gentlemen,

Let nothing you dismay,
Do not let anything discourage you,

Remember Christ our Savior Was born on Christmas Day;
Always keep in mind that Christ, our savior, was born on Christmas Day,

To save us all from Satan's power When we were gone astray.
He came to save us from the devil's influence when we were lost and confused.

O tidings of comfort and joy,
This is news that brings us comfort and happiness!

Comfort and joy,
It brings us comfort and happiness!

O tidings of comfort and joy!
This news is comforting and happy!

From God our heavenly Father A blessed angel came;
God's holy angel came down from heaven;

And unto certain shepherds Brought tiding of the same;
To some shepherds, he brought the same news;

How that in Bethlehem was born The Son of God by name.
He told them that the Son of God was born in Bethlehem.

"Fear not, then," said the angel, "Let nothing you affright;
"Don't be afraid," said the angel, "Don't let anything scare you;

This day is born a Savior Of a pure virgin bright,
Today, a pure and bright virgin has given birth to a savior;

To free all those who trust in him From Satan's power and might."
His purpose is to save all who put their faith in him from the devil's influence."

Now to the Lord sing praises,
Let's sing praises to the Lord!

All you within this place,
Everyone who is here,

And with true love and brotherhood Each other now embrace;
Let's embrace each other with genuine love and brotherhood;

this holy tide of Christmas Doth bring redeeming grace
This holy time of Christmas brings grace that redeems us;
