Do you know the song
that the angels sang
On that night in the long ago,
When the heavens above
with their music rang
Till it echoed in the earth below?
All glory in the highest,
Peace on earth, goodwill to men,
Glory in the highest,
Peace, goodwill to men;
Glory in the highest,
Glory in the highest,
Peace on earth, goodwill to men.
Do you know the song
that the shepherds heard
As they watched o’er
their flocks by night,
When the skies bent down,
and their hearts were stirred
By the voices of the angels bright?
All glory in the highest,
Peace on earth, goodwill to men,
Glory in the highest,
Peace, goodwill to men;
Glory in the highest,
Glory in the highest,
Peace on earth, goodwill to men.
Do you know the story
that the wise men learned
As they journeyed from the east afar,
O’er a pathway plain,
for there nightly burned
In their sight a glorious guiding star?
All glory in the highest,
Peace on earth, goodwill to men,
Glory in the highest,
Peace, goodwill to men;
Glory in the highest,
Glory in the highest,
Peace on earth, goodwill to men.
