Moya Brennan - 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 our souls from Satan's power when we had gone astray Oh tidings of comfort and joy Comfort and joy Oh tidings of comfort and joy In Bethlehem, in Jewry, 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 Now when they came to Bethlehem whereat the Infant lay They found Him in a manger where oxen fed on hay His mother Mary kneeling down unto the Lord did pray Oh tidings of comfort and joy Comfort and joy Oh 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 Oh tidings of comfort and joy Comfort and joy Oh tidings of comfort and joy
