The Peace Carol
Lyrics and Music  by Robert H. Beers
                            3/4 time

G / / 2 / / Am / / 2 / / D7 / / 2 / / G / / 2 / /

Am
The garment of life, be it tattered and torn
D7 G
The cloak of the soldier is weathered and worn
Em Am
But what child is this that was poverty-born
D7 G
The peace of Christmas Day

CHORUS :
The branch that bears the bright holly
The dove that rests in yonder tree
The light that burns for all to see
The peace of Christmas Day

Verse 2:

A hope that has slumbered for 2000 years
A promise that silenced a thousand fears
A faith that can hobble an ocean of tears
The peace of Christmas Day
(chorus)

Verse 3:

Add all the grief that people may bear
Total the strife, the troubles and care
Put them in columns,  then leave them all there
The peace of Christmas Day
(chorus)
