It came upon the midnight clear,
that glorious song of old
From angels bending near the earth
to touch their harps of gold

Still through the cloven skies they come
with peaceful wings unfurl
And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world

Peace on the earth,
goodwill to men,

from heaven's all gracious king

The world in solemn stillness lay
to hear the angels sing

hear the angels sing

Peace on the earth,

goodwill to men,
from heaven's all gracious king
The world in solemn stillness lay
to hear the angels sing

and hear the angels sing...ng
