Sixpence None The Richer - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

Album:

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 pow'r 
when we were gone astray 

Chorus 
o tidings of comfort and joy 
comfort and joy 
o 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 

Chorus

"fear not," then said the angel 
"let nothing you affright 
this day is born a Savior 
of virtue, power, and might 
so frequently to vanquish all 
the friends of Satan quite" 

Chorus

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 
this blessed babe to find 

Chorus

but when to Bethlehem they came 
whereat this infant lay 
they found him in a manger 
where oxen feed on hay 
His mother Mary kneeling 
unto the Lord did pray 

Chorus

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 

Chorus
