It Came Upon A Midnight Clear

It came upon a midnight clear
緬想當年時方夜半
That glorious song of old
忽來榮耀歌聲
From angels bending near the earth
天使屈身俯向人間
To touch their harps of gold
怡然手撥金琴
'Peace on the earth, good will to men
地上平安人增友誼
From heaven's all gracious King
天賜特殊奇恩
The world in solemn stillness lay
當晚世界沉寂之中
To hear the angels sing
靜聽天使歌聲

直到如今依舊天開
Still through the cloven skies they come
天使依舊來臨
With peaceful wings unfurled
天使依舊歡奏天樂
And still their heavenly music floats
聲徹疲乏塵瀛
O'er all the weary world
依舊欣然展開天翼
Above its sad and lowly plains
俯視愁苦群生
They bend on hovering wing
萬邦嘈雜群音之上
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
仍聞天使歌聲
The blessed angels sing
世界萬千勞苦民眾

負擔重壓身心
And ye beneath life's crushing load
人群進化難若登山
Whose forms are bending low
步步辛苦萬分
Who toil along the climbing way
當知所望黃金時代
With painful steps and slow
不久便要來臨
Look now, for glad and golden hours
崎嶇道上請息片時
Come swiftly on the wing
靜聽天使歌聲
Oh rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing
