Lyrics

[Verse 1]
God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
Remember, Christ our Savior, was born upon this day
To save us all from Satan's power when we were gone astray
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
[Verse 2]
From God our Heavenly Father, this 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, comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
[Verse 3]
O, star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to that perfect light
[Verse 4]
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to reign
[Verse 5]
O, star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to that perfect light
[Verse 6]
Glorious now, behold Him arise
King and God and sacrifice
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Worship Him, God Most High
[Verse 7]
O, star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to that perfect light
[Verse 8]
God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
