[Pre-Chorus]
God rest ye merry gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas day

[Chorus]
To save us all from Satan's power
When we had gone astray
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

[Pre-Chorus]
God rest ye merry gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas day

[Chorus]
To save us all from Satan's power
When we had gone astray
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy

Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and philanthropist.

Under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, Carey released her self-titled debut studio album Mariah Carey in 1990; it went multi-platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 and success with hit records “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994), Carey was established as Columbia’s highest-selling act. Daydream (1995) made music history when its second single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men, spent a record sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remains the longest-running number-one song in U.S. chart history, along with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito.” During the recording of the album, Carey began to deviate from her R&B and pop beginnings and slowly traversed into hip hop. This musical change became evident with the release of Butterfly (1997), at which time Carey had separated from Mottola.
