God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen Songtext
von Greater Vision

God rest ye, merry gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay,
Remember, Christ, our Saviour,
Was born on Christmas 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.

In Bethlehem, in Judah,
This blessed Babe was born;
And laid within a manger,
Upon this blessed morn;
The which His Mother Mary,
Did nothing take in scorn.


O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O 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.

O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.

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!
