F#m E/G#
It came upon the midnight clear,
A B
That glorious song of old,
F#m E/G#
From angels bending near the earth
D E A
To touch their harps of gold
C# F#m
“Peace on the earth, good will to men
B E
From heaven’s all-gracious King.”
F#m C#m
The world in solemn stillness lay
D E A
To hear the angels sing.
[Interlude]
F#m E/G# F#m E/G#
[Verse 2]
F#m E/G#
Still through the cloven skies they come
A B
With peaceful wings unfurled,
F#m E/G#
And still their heavenly music floats
D E A
O’er all the weary world.
C# F#m
Above its sad and lowly plains
B E
They bend on hovering wing,
F#m C#m
And ever o’er its babel sounds
D E A
The blessed angels sing.
[Interlude 2]
F#m E/G# A B
F#m E/G# D E A
[Ending]
C# D
Look now the glad and golden hours
B E
Come swiftly on the wing
F#m A
Oh rest beside the weary road
D E A
And hear the angels sing
F#m A
Come rest beside the weary road
D E A
And hear the angels sing
[Outro]
A E/G# D E
