O Prince of peace whose promised birth the angels sang with `Peace on earth', peace be to us and all beside, peace to us all, peace to the world this Christmastide. O child who found to lay your head no place but in a manger bed, come where our doors stand open wide, peace to us all, peace to the world, peace in our homes this Christmastide. O Christ whom shepherds came to find, their joy be ours in heart and mind; let grief and care be laid aside, peace to us all, peace to the world, peace in our homes, peace in our hearts this Christmastide. O Saviour Christ, ascended Lord, our risen Prince of life restored, our Love who once for sinners died, peace to us all, peace to the world, peace in our homes, peace in our hearts, peace with our God this Christmastide.
