Sweet Peace On Earth
Author: Julia A. Mathews Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: "Sweet peace on earth, good will to men" Refrain First Line: The Christ is come to lead us home Lyrics: 1 "Sweet peace on earth, good will to men,"
The angels now are singing;
Their anthem, caroled thro’ the sky,
In every heart is ringing:
Refrain:
The Christ is come to lead us home,
His star shines forth in glory;
Let every bell the tidings tell,
That all may know the story.
2 O Christ, their simple gifts to Thee
Thy little ones are bringing;
No gold, or myrrh, or costly gems,
But they are softly singing: [Refrain]
3 ’Tis all that we can do for Thee;
But, even angel voices
Can never sing a nobler song
Than that which earth rejoices: [Refrain] Used With Tune: BEAUMONT Text Sources: Royal Diadem by Robert Lowry and W. Howard Doane (New York: Biglow & Main, 1873)
