[00:09.74]It came upon the midnight clear,
[00:14.48]that glorious song of old
[00:19.09]From angels bending near the earth
[00:24.03]to touch their harps of gold
[00:28.45]Peace on the earth, goodwill to men,
[00:33.06]from heaven's all gracious king
[00:38.14]The world in solemn stillness lay
[00:43.06]to hear the angels sing
[00:54.67]Still through the cloven skies they come
[00:59.43]with peaceful wings unfurl
[01:04.22]And still their heavenly music floats
[01:08.93]O'er all the weary world
[01:13.59]Above its sad and lowly plains
[01:18.06]they bend on hovering wing
[01:22.99]And ever o'er its Babel sounds
[01:27.89]the blessed angels sing
[02:24.97]O ye, beneath life's crushing load
[02:29.41]whose forms are bending low
[02:33.99]Who toil along the climbing way
[02:38.89]with painful steps and slow
[02:43.42]Look now for glad and golden hours
[02:48.26]come swiftly on the wing
[02:52.92]O rest beside the weary road
[02:57.86]and hear the angels sing
[03:02.80]and hear the angels sing
