God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

Bing Crosby/Max Terr's Mixed Chorus/John Scott Trotter Orchestra



Written by: (See Notes) 1883



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)



(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



(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.



(O tidings of comfort and joy,)



(Comfort and joy)



{O tidings of comfort and joy}
