Author: Julia A. Mathews Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8798 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: "Peace upon earth!" the angels sang Refrain First Line: Joyously sing, joyously sing Lyrics: 1 "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.
Refrain:
Joyously sing, joyously sing,
Joyously sing, joyously sing!
Shout hallelujah to Christ, our king!
2 "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. [Refrain]
3 "Jesus has come!" it echoes wide,
Thro’ valley and plain, on mountainside;
But not alone the angels sing,
For even children the anthem ring. [Refrain]
4 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. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Peace upon earth! the angels sang]
Peace Upon Earth
