Michael McDonald - 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're gone astray

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh, 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

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh, 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

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

The shepherds at those tidings, rejoiced much in mind
And left their flocks a-feeding in tempest, storm and wind
And went to Bethlehem straightway, the Son of God to find

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
