God Rest You Merry Christy Nockels

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 pow'r
When we were gone astray

O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Comfort and joy!

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

O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Comfort and joy!

Here between arrivals we will wait with hope
Lifting up our song of thankfulness!
Joy of every longing heart, we look to You now
You're the reason that we have to rest
You have come and You will come again!

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
We celebrate His grace!

O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

Here between arrivals we will wait with hope
Lifting up our song of thankfulness!
Joy of every longing heart, we look to You now
You're the reason that we have to rest
You have come and You will come again!

Christ has come and Christ will come again!

O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Comfort and joy!
