    Dm
God rest ye merry gentlemen
    Bb             A
Let nothing you dismay
  Dm
Remember Christ our savior
    Bb                A
Was born on Christmas day
   Gm               F
To save us all from Satan's power
     Dm             C
When we were gone astray

Brought tidings of the same
    Gm            F
How that in Bethlehem was born

The Son of God by name

They found him in the manger

Where oxen feed on hay
    Gm          F
His mother Mary kneeled down
    Dm              C
And to the Lord did pray
Bb/D C/E   F          A7          Dm   C

Let nothing you dismay
