Ray Conniff Lyrics - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

Ray Conniff - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

God rest you 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
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

The Shepherds at these tidings
Rejoiced much in mind
And left their flocks a feeding
In tempest and in wine
And went to Bethlehem straight way
The son of God to find
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy, tidings of comfort and joy
