It came upon a 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 unfurled
And still the heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world


Peace on the earth
Good will to men

From heaven's all gracious King

The world in solumn stillness lay

To hear the angels sing
Hear the angels sing


Peace on the earth
Good will to men
From heaven's all gracious King


The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing


Hear the angels sing
Hear the angels sing

Hear the angels sing

On a midnight clear
