Neil Diamond GOD REST YE MERRY GENTLEMEN lyrics

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 power
When we were gone astray
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

In Bethlehem, in Jewry,
This blessed babe was born
And laid within a manger,
Upon a Christmas morn'
That 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
