[00:21.31]It came upon the midnight clear that glorious song of old
[00:36.61]
[00:38.89]From angels bending near the earth to touch their harps of gold
[00:54.19]
[00:56.56]Peace on the earth goodwill to men from heav'n's all gracious king
[01:11.95]
[01:14.62]The world in solemn stillness lay to hear the angels sing
[01:30.04]
[01:32.80]Still through the cloven skies they come with peaceful wings unfurl
[01:46.69]
[01:50.65]And still their heavenly music floats O'er all the weary world
[02:05.35]
[02:09.16]Above its sad and lowly plains they bend on hovering wing
[02:24.22]
[02:25.81]And ever o'er its Babel sounds the blessed angels sing
[02:29.38]O ye beneath life's crushing load whose forms are bending low
[02:30.67]Who toil along the climbing way with painful steps and slow
[02:34.72]
[02:35.41]Look now for glad and golden hours come swiftly on the wing
[02:37.39]O rest beside the weary road and hear the angels sing
[02:41.02]For lo the days are hastening on by prophets seen of old
[02:42.28]When with the ever circling years shall come the time foretold
[02:43.90]When the new heaven and earth shall own the prince of peace their King
[02:45.16]
[02:57.07]And the whole world send back the song which now the angels sing
