GOD REST YE MERRY GENTLEMEN                ANNIE LENNOX ( TRAD. CHRISTMAS CAROL )


     Dm               
God rest ye merry, gentlemen
     Bb             A7
let nothing you dismay 
  Dm  
Remember Christ our Savior 
     Bb               A7
was born on Christmas Day 
    Gm               A7  
To save us all from Satan's pow'r 
     Dm               C
when we were gone a-stray 


Chorus:
   F          A7          Dm
O tidings of comfort and joy,
             C
comfort and joy! 
   F         Bb   A7      Dm
O tidings of comfort and joy

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. 

Chorus


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.


Chorus

"Fear not then," said the Angel,"Let nothing you affright,
This day is born a Saviour of a pure Virgin bright,
To free all those who trust in Him from Satan's power and might."


Chorus

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 other doth deface.

Chorus
