Lyrics
Verse 1
It came upon a midnight clear
That glorious song of old
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold
Verse 2
Still through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled
And still the heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world
Chorus 1
Peace on earth, good will to men
From heaven's gracious King
Verse 3
And you, beneath life's crushing load
Whose forms are bending low
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful step and slow
Chorus 2
Peace on earth, good will to men
From heaven's gracious King
O hush the noise, you men of strife
And hear the angels sing
Chorus 1
Peace on earth, good will to men
From heaven's gracious King
Verse 4
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing
To hear the angels sing
