1 Out of the gateway sparkling with light,
Thronging the heav’ns, that wonderful night,
Come the bright Angels, there to fulfill,
God’s holy message—“Peace and goodwill.”

Refrain:
Song of the angels, ages ago,
Sweetly it rang o’er pastures below;
Yet we can hear it echoing still,
Song of the Angels, “Peace and goodwill.”

2 Down from the sky with music they came,
Crowned by the Star with magical flame,
Telling the shepherds, out on the hill,
“Now to all nations—Peace and goodwill.” [Refrain]

3 Taught by the angels, gladly we sing,
Hailing with joy the birth of the King;
Anthems of praise, with glory they thrill
Tidings of Christmas: “Peace and goodwill.” [Refrain]
