Far away one holy night, shepherds watched a star so bright.Magic wonder in the air, peace and joy were everywhere.Songs of angels filled the sky, glory be to God on high.In a manger sweet with hay, Christ was born on Christmas day.Child of Mary, filled with light, child of mercy, strength and might.Give us grace to walk with thee, fill us with thy purity.Strengthened by thy love divine, make our hearts a constant shrine.Teach us patience ever meek, guide us by thy word to seek.Faith that sees our brother's good.Blessing all in brotherhood.Ah, may all nations rise with thee in one glorious victory.Laying down the battle's strife.Turning to a holy life.And there go through each vale and glen.Peace on earth, goodwill to men.Ah, peace on earth, goodwill to men.Ah, peace on earth, goodwill to men.
