366. Christmastide Again Is Here

1 Christmas-tide again is here,
Brightest season of the year,
Lights are shining, bells are ringing,
Young and old unite in singing:
Peace on earth, good will to men!
Peace on earth, good will to men!

2 Christmas-tide, the best on earth,
For it tells of Jesus' birth;
And this Christ-Child in the manger
Saves from sin and keeps fro danger.
Peace on earth, good will to men!
Peace on earth, good will to men!

3 Christmas-tide bids all rejoice,
Bids us sing with heart and voice,
Telling forth the blessed story,
Jesus Christ came down from glory.
Peace on earth, good will to men!
Peace on earth, good will to men!

4 Christmas-tide bids church and home
Sing for joy: The Lord has come!
Song and sermon tell the story.
Glory in the highest glory!
Peace on earth, good will to men!
Peace on earth, good will to men!

5 Christmas-tide, sweet Christmas-tide,
Spread thy message far and wide:
Christ removes all sin and sadness
And would fill our hearts with gladness.
Peace on earth, good will to men!
Peace on earth, good will to men!
