O’er the hills and
adown the snowy dells,
As the echoes ring
of the Christmas bells,
Angel songs in
our hearts resound again,
Singing peace on earth
and good will to men!
Bring good will to
the suffering and sad;
Speak the tender word
that shall make them glad;
Tell them how,
o’er the hills of Bethlehem
When the angels sang,
’twas good news for them.
Peace on earth!
bid all strife and tumult cease;
For this night again
gives the Lord His peace;
While our hands
shall His temple beautify,
Carol, glory be unto God most high.
