1 Carol, carol, children! We’ll be glad alway.
Carol, carol, children! For this is Christmas day.
Peace on earth, good will to men,
That was the angels’ song.
Peace on earth, good will to men,
The echo lingers long.

2 Carol, carol, children! We’ll be glad alway.
Carol, carol, children! For this is Christmas day.
What mean those words the angels sang,
Of peace on earth to men?
They tell us that all strife shall cease,
And love shall reign again.
