Up from death’s dark vale arise Voices of a world in grief, Prayers of men who seek relief: Now our darkness pierce again, "Peace on earth, peace on earth, goodwill, goodwill to men." 3 Light of light, we humbly pray, Shine upon your world today; Break the gloom of our dark night, Fill our souls with love and light, Send your blessed word again, "Peace on earth, peace on earth, goodwill, goodwill to men."
