[00:09.40]It came upon the midnight clear
[00:14.13]That glorious song of old
[00:18.41]From angels bending near the earth
[00:23.19]To touch their harps of gold
[00:27.72]Peace on the earth goodwill to men
[00:32.51]From heaven’s all gracious king
[00:37.13]The world in solemn stillness lay
[00:41.90]To hear the angels sing
[00:46.22]
[00:46.90]Still through the cloven skies they come
[00:51.81]With peaceful wings unfurled
[00:56.26]And still the heavenly music floats
[01:00.89]O’er all the weary world
[01:05.48]Above it’s sad and lowly plains
[01:10.16]They bend on hovering wing
[01:14.69]And ever over this babel sounds
[01:19.64]The blessed angels sing
[01:24.03]
[01:24.83]Yet with the woes of sin and strife
[01:29.65]The world hath suffered long
[01:33.74]
[01:34.33]Beneath the heavenly strain have rolled
[01:39.31]Two thousand years of wrong
[01:43.47]
[01:44.03]And man at war with man hears not
[01:48.72]The loving which they bring
[01:53.57]O hush the noise ye men of strife
[01:58.69]And hear the angels sing
