Keith God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen song lyrics

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

Refrian

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

In Bethlehem in Israel this blessed Babe was born

And laid within a manger upon this blessed morn

The which His mother Mary did nothing take in scorn

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

The shepherds at those tidings rejoiced much in mind

And left their flocks afeeding in tempest storms and wind

And went to Bethlehem straightway the Son of God to find

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
