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 heavens all gracious King!"
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
Still through the cloven skies they come,
With peaceful wings unfurled;
And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world:
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing,
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.
For lo! the days are hastening on
By prophet bards foretold,
When, with the ever circling years
Come round the age of gold;
When Peace shall over all the earth,
Its ancient splendors fling,
And the whole world send back their song,
Which now the angels sing.
And the whole world send back their song,
Which now the angels sing.
