[Am]God rest ye merry, gentlemen
Let [F]nothing you [E]dismay
[Am]Remember, Christ, our Saviour
Was [F]born on Christmas [E]day
To [Dm]save us all from [C]Satan’s power
When [Am]we were gone [G]astray
O [C]tidings of [E]comfort and [Am]joy,
Comfort and [G]joy
O [C]tidings of [E]comfort and [Am]joy
[Am]From God our Heavenly Father
A [F]blessed Angel [E]came;
[Am]And unto certain Shepherds
Brought [F]tidings of the [E]same:
How [Dm]that in Bethleh[C]em was born
The [Am]Son of God by [G]Name.
O [C]tidings of [E]comfort and [Am]joy,
Comfort and [G]joy
O [C]tidings of [E]comfort and [Am]joy
[Am]And when they came to Bethlehem
Where [F]our dear Saviour [E]lay,
[Am]They found Him in a manger,
Where [F]oxen feed on [E]hay;
His [Dm]Mother Mary kneeling [C]down,
[Am]Unto the Lord did [G]pray.
O [C]tidings of [E]comfort and [Am]joy,
Comfort and [G]joy
O [C]tidings of [E]comfort and [Am]joy
[Am]Now to the Lord sing praises,
All [F]you within this [E]place,
[Am]And with true love and brotherhood
Each [F]other now [E]embrace;
This [Dm]holy tide of [C]Christmas
All [Am]other doth [G]deface.
O [C]tidings of [E]comfort and [Am]joy,
Comfort and [G]joy
O [C]tidings of [E]comfort and [Am]joy
