            ……….It came upon a midnight clear
                      D        B7      E7
                That glorious song of old
                     A      D       A            
                From angels bending near the earth
                   D           E7        A  
                To touch their harps of gold

  	   Enter the drums, A D x2 (Instrumental Bridge)

                Still through the cloven skies they come
                With peaceful wings unfurled
                And still their heavenly music floats	
                O'er all the weary world

                 C#7                   F#m        
                "Peace on earth,  good will to men
                     G                 D     
                From heaven's gracious King;

                     
		     A        D      A   (Instrumental Bridge)         
                                    
			
		   Yet with the woes of sin and strife, 
		   The world has suffered long.  
		   Beneath the blessed angel strain have rolled 
		   Two-thousand years of wrong.

                C#7                    F#m        
                "Peace on earth,  good will to men
                     G                 D     
                From heaven's gracious King;

		      (vocal and bass drum only)   		
		   Oh hush the noise you men of strife
			 	           
		   And hear the angels…

                     G                 D (hard, loud, and hold)
