C7    Fmaj7    C7                 Fmaj7     D7      G  G7 
It came upon the midnight clear, that glorious song of old 
  C7    Fmaj7   C7              Fmaj7       G7       C7 
From angels bending near the Earth, to touch their harps of gold 
      E7                  Am7 
Peace on the Earth and goodwill to men,  
      Gmaj7     D7           G   G7 
From heaven?s all gracious king 
 C7     Fm9/Ab  C7 Bdim7 Am7     Fmaj7    G7     C7 
The world in solemn stillness lay, to hear the angels sing 

turnaround:  (Dm7   G7   C7) 


Verse 2: 
Still through the cloven skies they come, with peaceful wings unfurled 
And still their heavenly music floats, O?er all the weary world 
Above its sad and lowly plains 
They bend on hovering wing 
And ever o?er its Babel sounds, the blessed angels sing 


Verse 3:
 
O ye, beneath life?s crushing load, whose forms are bending low 
Who toil along the climbing way, with painful steps and slow 
Look now for glad and golden hours 
Come swiftly on the wing 
O rest beside the weary road, and hear the angels sing
