God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
by Keith & Kristyn Getty

Album: Irish Christmas Festival - Live

Verse 1
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 pow'r when we were gone astray

Refrian
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy, O tidings of comfort and joy

Verse 2
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

Verse 3
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

Verse 5
The shepherds at those tidings rejoiced much in mind
And left their flocks afeeding in tempest storms and wind
And went to Bethlehem straightway the Son of God to find

Verse 7
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
