A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar

It was light years of time since his mission did start

And over a village he halted his craft

And it hung in the sky like a star

Just like a star

He followed a light and came down to a shed

Where a mother and a child were lying there on a bed

A bright light of silver shone round his head

And he had the face of an angel

And they were afraid

Then the stranger spoke

He said do not fear

I come from a planet a long way from here

And I bring a message for mankind to hear

And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air

And it went la lalalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalalalala

Peace and good will to all men

And love for the child

And it went la lalalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalalalala

Peace and good will to all men

And love for the child

This lovely music went trembling through the ground

And many were wakened on hearing that sound

And travellers on the road the village they found

By the light of that ship in the sky

Which shone all round

And just before dawn at the paling of the sky

The stranger returned and said now I must fly

When two thousand years of your time has gone by

This song will begin once again

To a baby's cry

And it went lalalalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalalalala

Peace and goodwill to all men

And love for the child

And it went lalalalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalala

And it went lalalalalalalalalala

Peace and good will to all men

And love for the child

And it went lalalalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalalalala

And it went lalalalalalalalalala
