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 their heavenly music floats O'er all the weary world:
"Peace on the earth, goodwill to men From heavens 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 heavens all gracious King!" The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing.
Heavenly angels sing, sing Hear the angels sing! Heavenly angels sing, sing Hear the angels sing! Hear the angels sing! Heavenly angels sing, sing! On a midnight clear… Heavenly angels sing Hear the angels! Heavenly angels sing, sing!
