it came upon the midnight clear
glorious song, song of old
angels bending near the earth
to touch their harps of gold
still through the cloven skies they come
with peacful wings, wings unfurled
still their heavenly music floats
o´er all the weary world
peace on earth, goodwill to men
from heaven's all gracious king
the world in solemn stilnesslay
to hear the angels sing
yet with the woes of sin and strife
world has suffered long, to long
beneath the heavenly strain have rolled
two thousand years of wrong
peace on earth, goodwill to men
from heaven´s all gracious king
the world in solemn stilness lay
to hear the angels sing
peace on earth, goodwill to men
from heaven´s all gracious king
the world in solemn stilness lay
to hear the angels sing
