Children, heark­en, hear those voic­es,
How the waves of song arise;
’Tis the an­gel hosts re­joic­ing,
Making glad the up­per skies.

Refrain

Then we’ll sing of peace and glo­ry,
Gladly sing­ing all the way;
Sing the joy­ful Christ­mas sto­ry,
For ’tis Christ­mas time to­day.

Loud their gold­en harps re­sound­ed,
Telling of our sins for­giv’n;
Telling how God’s love has found us,
Peace for men in earth and Heav’n.

Refrain

’Tis of Je­sus they are sing­ing,
Of th’a­noint­ed, bless­èd One;
They to Him their of­fer­ings bring­ing,
Bring them to Je­ho­vah’s Son.

Refrain

Children, while the an­gels praise Him,
Let us, too, our of­fer­ings bring;
Cast our life and all be­fore Him,
Hallelujah let us sing.
