Peace on earth, good will to men
And men have sought it from the start
I felt it when I asked you in
Now peace on earth lives in my heart
Now peace on earth lives in my heart
Peace on earth, the angels said
As peace lay in a manger bed
Not the peace that this world gives
But God with man has come to live
Peace on earth, good will to men
And men have sought it from the start
I felt it when I asked you in
Now peace on earth lives in my heart
Now peace on earth lives in my heart
Not to end all earthly war
As countless soul were longing for
But throug this blessed Holy Child
God and man are reconciled
Peace on earth, good will to men
And men have sought it from the start
I felt it when I asked you in
Now peace on earth lives in my heart
Now peace on earth lives in my heart
When empty was this heart of mine
And I longed for peace I could not find
But finally I laid down my pride
Now peace on earth lives here inside
