Peace upon Earth

Peace up­on earth! the an­gels sang

Good will un­to men! the chor­us rang

Glory to God! the Christ has come

His bright star shines in the clear blue dome.

Joyously sing

joy­ous­ly sing

Joyously sing

joy­ous­ly sing!

Shout hal­le­lu­jah to Christ

our king!

Peace up­on earth! ’tis sound­ing still

Glory un­to God

to men good will!

Bethlehem’s song

’tis caught from far

And lift­ed up

to that glow­ing star.

Jesus has come! it ech­oes wide

Thro’ val­ley and plain

on mount­ain­side;

But not alone the an­gels sing

For ev­en child­ren the an­them ring.

Yes! let them sing

for Christ has laid

His hand with a bless­ing on their head;

Sweeter to Him than an­gels’ tones

Are songs that come from His lit­tle ones.
