Intro: F Dm7 G7 C (x2)
C E F C F C G7 F D7 G7
It came upon a midnight clear, that glorious song of old;
C E F C F C7 F G7 C
From angels bending near the earth, to touch their harps of gold.
E7 Am E7 Am G D7 G G7
Peace on the earth, good will to men, from heaven's all gracious King;'
C E F C F C7 F Dm7 G7 C
The world in solemn stillness lay, to hear the an- -gels sing.
E F C F C G7 F D7 G7
Still through the cloven skies they come, with peaceful wings unfurled,
C E F C F C7 F G7 C
And still their heavenly music floats, o?er all the weary world.
E7 Am E7 Am G D7 G G7
Above its sad and lowly plains, they bend on hovering wing;
C E F C F C7 F Dm7 G7 C
And ever o'er its Babel sounds, the blessed an- -gels sing.
E F C F C G7 F D7 G7
Oh ye, beneath life's crushing load, whose forms are bending low,
C E C F C F C7 F G7 C
Who toil along the climbing way, with painful steps and slow.
E7 Am E7 Am G D7 G G7
Look now for glad and golden hours, come swiftly on the wing;
C E C F C F C7 F Dm7 G7 C
Oh rest beside the weary road, and hear the an??gels sing. (Slowing)
F Dm7 G7 C
And hear the an??gels sing.
