Glory to God in the highest; Peace on earth, goodwill to men;
Peace on earth, goodwill to men!

Glory to God in the highest; Peace on earth, goodwill to men;
Peace on earth, goodwill to men!

Glory to God in the highest; Peace on earth, goodwill to men;
Peace on earth, goodwill to men!

Hasten the time when, from ev’ry clime, Men shall unite in the strains sublime:
