Lyrics

It (Abmaj7)came upon

(Ab6)the (Abmaj7)midnight clear,

that (Fm)glorious song of old,

(Eb)from (Abmaj7)angels (Ab6)bending (Abmaj7)near the earth

to (Fm)touch their (Ebsus)harps of (Abmaj7)gold:

"Peace (Gm7)on the earth,

(Fm)goodwill to men,

from (Eb)heaven's all (Bb)gracious (Eb)King!"

The (Abmaj7)world in (Ab6)solemn (Abmaj7)stillness lay to (Fm)hear the (Ebsus)(Eb)angels (Abmaj7)sing.

(Ab6)Yet (Abmaj7)with the woes

(Ab6)of (Abmaj7)sin and strife the (Fm)world ri has suffered long;

(Eb)(Abmaj7)beneath the (Ab6)angels' (Abmaj7)strain have rolled two (Fm)thousand (Ebsus)years of (Abmaj7)wrong.

And (Gm7)man, at war with (Fm)man,

hears not the (Eb)love en's song (Bb)which they bring.

(Eb)O (Abmaj7)hush the (Ab6)noise,

ye (Abmaj7)men of strife, and (Fm)hear the (Ebsus)(Eb)angels (Abmaj7)sing.

(Ab6)Yet (Fm)hear the (Ebsus)(Eb)angels (Gb)sing!

(Ab)Hear the angels (Gb)sing.

(Fb)And (Csus)now, for (C7)glad and (Fm)golden hours

come (Eb)swiftly (Bb)on the (Eb)wing.

O (Abmaj7)rest (Ab6)beside

the (Abmaj7)weary road and (Fm)hear the (Ebsus)(Eb)angels

(Abmaj7)sing.

(Dbsus2)Hear the angels (Abmaj7)sing.

(Ebsus)Hear the (Dbsus2)angels (Eb7sus)sing.

(Abmaj7)(Ab6)(Abmaj7)(Ab6)Hallelujah! (Fm7)Christ the

(Ebsus)Savior is (Dbsus2)born!

(Abmaj7)(Ab6)(Abmaj7)(Ab6)Hallelujah! (Fm7)Christ the

(Ebsus)Savior is (Dbsus2)born!

(Ebsus)Savior is (Dbsus2)born!
