Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Let nothing you dismay

Let them see

God rest ye merry, gentlemen

Let nothing you dismay

Remember, Christ, our Saviour

Was born on Christmas Day

To save us all from Satan's pow'r

When we were gone astray

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

Comfort and joy

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

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

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

Comfort and joy

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

Angels we've heard on high

Singing this sweet reply

Let ev'ry heart rejoice

And lift up their voice

Let them see

Just let heaven

Let them see

Joy to the world

For the new born king

God rest ye merry, gentlemen

Let them see

Joy to the world, to the world

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

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

Comfort and joy

Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

Let them see

Oh, let them see

Let them see

Let them see

Let them see

Let them see

Let them see

I'll be home for Christmas

I'll be home for Christmas

You can count on me

Please have snow and mistletoe

And presents under the tree

Christmas Eve will find me

Where the love light gleams

I'll be home for Christmas

If only in my dreams

I'll be home for Christmas

If only in my dreams

I'll be home for Christmas

If only in my dreams

I'm dreaming tonight of a place I love

Even more than I usually do

And although I know it's a long road back

I promise you

I'll be home for Christmas

If only in my dreams

Please have snow and mistletoe

And presents under the tree

Christmas Eve will find me

Where the love light gleams

I'll be home for Christmas

If only in my dreams
