1 Once the angels sang a carol,
Floating through the air,
Telling of the infant Jesus,
Sweet, and pure and fair.

Refrain:
Glory, glory in the highest,
Peace on earth to men;
As the angels sang that morning
Sing we now again.

2 Once the shepherds, watching faithful,
By their flocks at night,
Saw a star whose holy radiance
Made the whole world bright. [Refrain]

3 Once the wise men, traveling onward,
From their homes afar,
Found a Savior in a manger,
Guided by a star. [Refrain]
