It came upon the midnight clear
That glorious song of old
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold

Peace on the earth, goodwill to men
From heaven's all-gracious King
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.

Yet with the woes of sin and strife
The world has suffered long
Beneath the angel's strains have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong

And man, at war with man, hears not
The love-song which they bring
Oh hush the noise, ye men of strife,
And hear the angels sing.
