God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen

"God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" is a song Frank Sinatra recorded alongside Bing Crosby for a holiday episode of "The Frank Sinatra Show" in 1957.

Lyrics
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

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

"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"

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

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

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

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

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

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

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