E1:It came up_on a mid_night clear/That glo_rious song of old/From ang_els bend_ing near the earth/To touch their harps of gold/Peace on the earth, good will to men/From heaven's all gra_cious King/The world in so_lemn still_ness lay/To hear the ang_els sing
|
|
E2:Still through the clo_ven skies they come/With peace_ful wings un_furled/And still their heaven_ly mu_sic floats/O'er all the wea_ry world/A_bove its sad and low_ly plains/They bend on ho_vering wing/And e_ver o'er its Ba_bel sounds/The bles_sed ang_els sing
|
|
E3:Yet with the woes of sin and strife/The world has suf_fered long;/Be_neath the ang_el strain have rolled/Two thou_sand years of wrong;/And man, at war with man, hears not/The love-_song which they bring;/O hush the noise, ye men of strife/And hear the ang_els sing.
|
|
E4:And ye be_neath life's crush_ing load/Whose forms are bend_ing low/Who toil a_long the climb_ing way/With pain_ful steps and slow/Look now for glad and gol_den hours/Come swift_ly on the wing/O rest be_side the wea_ry road/And hear the ang_els sing
|
|
E5:For lo! the days are hasten_ing on,/by pro_phet seen of old,/when with the e_ver-_circl_ing years/shall come the time fore_told/when peace shall o_ver all the earth/its an_cient splen_dors fling,/and the whole world send back the song/which now the ang_els sing./
