C                     G  
It came upon the midnight clear,  
Am                    F  
That glorious song of old,  
C                       G  
From angels bending near the earth,  
    Am                  F  
To touch their harps of gold:  
C                      G  
"Peace on the earth, goodwill to men,  
     Am                F  
From heaven's all-gracious King!"  
C                         G  
The world in solemn stillness lay,  
      Am                 F  
To hear the angels sing.  

C                     G  
Still through the cloven skies they come,  
    Am                   F  
With peaceful wings unfurled;  
C                       G  
And still their heavenly music floats  
      Am                  F  
O'er all the weary world;  
C                        G  
Above its sad and lowly plains,  
     Am                 F  
They bend on hovering wing,  
C                         G  
And ever o'er its Babel sounds  
      Am                 F  
The blessed angels sing.
