| [00:09.91] |
It came upon the midnight clear, that glorious song of old |
| [00:19.21] |
From angels bending near the earth to touch their harps of gold |
| [00:28.56] |
Peace on the earth, goodwill to men, from heaven's all gracious king |
| [00:38.08] |
The world in solemn stillness lay to hear the angels sing |
| [00:54.58] |
Still through the cloven skies they come with peaceful wings unfurl |
| [01:03.86] |
And still their heavenly music floats, O'er all the weary world. |
| [01:13.37] |
Above its sad and lowly plains they bend on hovering wing |
| [01:22.81] |
And ever o'er its Babel sounds the blessed angels sing |
| [02:24.87] |
O ye, beneath life's crushing load, whose forms are bending low |
| [02:34.11] |
Who toil along the climbing way with painful steps and slow |
| [02:43.60] |
Look now for glad and golden hours come swiftly on the wing |
| [02:53.05] |
O rest beside the weary road and hear the angels sing |
| [03:02.77] |
And hear the angels sing |
