God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen

A Swing Version of the Classic Carol 1. God rest you merry, gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay.
For Jesus Christ our Savior,
Was born on Christmas Day;
To save us all from Satan’s power,
When we were gone astray. O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy. 2. In Bethlehem, in Israel, this blessed Babe was born, and laid within a manger upon this blessed morn The which His Mother Mar-y did nothing take in scorn. 3. From God our heav'nly 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. 4. 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 5. 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 6. But when to Bethlehem they came,
Whereas this infant lay
They found him in a manger,
Where oxen feed on hay;
His mother Mary kneeling,
Unto the Lord did pray: COPY FREELY ©2011 Shiloh Worship Music-This Music Recording is copyrighted to prevent misuse, however,permission is grantedfor non-commercial copying only.Traditional Christmas Carol-Public Domain
