Bright Eyes - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen 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 power

When we were gone astray

Oh tidings of comfort and joy

From God our heavenly father

The 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

Oh tidings of comfort and joy

Fear not said the angel

Let nothing you affright

This day is born a savior

Of the pure virgin bright

To free all those who trust in him

From Satan's power and might

Oh tidings of comfort and joy

And when they came to Bethlehem

Where our dear savior lay

They found him in the manger

Where oxen feed on hay

His mother Mary kneeled down

And to the Lord did pray

Oh tidings of comfort and joy

Oh tidings of comfort and joy

God rest ye merry gentlemen

Let nothing you dismay

Remember Christ our savior

Was born on Christmas day
