It came Upon the widinglit clear
That glorious song of old.
From aagela bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold:
'Peace on the earth. goodwill to Well.
Frew heaven's all-gractuus King;'
The world In solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
Fur, 1o; the days are bastening on.
By prophet bards torJ•tokL
When with the ever-eittling years
Conte* round the age of gold,
When peace shall oven all the earth
It* aucient splendors fling.
And the whole world give back the
song
Which now the Angela sing.
