God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen

by Dinah Maria Mulock

Est. reading time: 1 min

OD rest ye, merry gentlemen; let nothing you ☑ dismay,
For Jesus Christ, our Saviour, was born on Christmas-day.
The dawn rose red o'er Bethlehem, the stars shone
through the gray,
When Jesus Christ, our Saviour, was born on
Christmas-day.
God rest ye, little children; let nothing you
affright,
For Jesus Christ, your Saviour, was born this happy night;
Along the hills of Galilee the white flocks sleeping
lay,
When Christ, the child of Nazareth, was born on
Christmas-day.
A LOBSTER QUADRILLE
God rest ye, all good Christians; upon this blessed
morn
The Lord of all good Christians was of a woman born:
Now all your sorrows He doth heal, your sins He takes away;
For Jesus Christ, our Saviour, was born on Christmas-day.
