God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen Lyrics - Barenaked Ladies

God rest ye merry, gentlemen, 

Let nothing you dismay, 

Remember Christ our Saviour 

Was born upon this 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 

This 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! 

O, star of wonder, star of night, 

Star with royal beauty bright, 

Westward leading, still proceeding, 

Guide us to that perfect light. 

Born a king on Bethlehem's plain; 

Gold I bring to crown Him again; 

King forever, ceasing never, 

Over us all to reign. 

O, star of wonder, star of night, 

Star with royal beauty bright, 

Westward leading, still proceeding, 

Guide us to thy perfect light.

Glorious now behold Him arise, 

King and God and sacrifice, 

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 

Worship Him, God Most High. 

O, star of wonder, star of night, 

Star with royal beauty bright, 

Westward leading, still proceeding, 

Guide us to that perfect light. 

God rest ye merry, gentlemen 

God rest ye merry, gentlemen 

God rest ye merry, gentlemen... 

We three kings of orient are 

Bearing gifts we traverse afar 

Field and fountain, moor and mountain 

Following yonder star 

Born a baby on Bethlehem's plain 

Gold we bring to crown him again 

King forever, ceasing never 

Over us all to rein 

Star of wonder, star of night 

Star with royal beauty bright 

Westward leading, still proceeding 

Guide us to thy perfect light 

Frankincense to offer have i 

Incense owns a deity nigh 

Pray'r and praising, all men raising 

Worship him, God most high 

Star of wonder, star of night 

Star with royal beauty bright 

Westward leading, still proceeding 

Guide us to thy perfect light 

Heaven sings hallelujah 

Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume 

Breathes of life of gathering gloom 

Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying 

Sealed in the stone-cold tomb 

Star of wonder, star of night 

Star with royal beauty bright 

Westward leading, still proceeding 

Guide us to thy perfect light
