by Daniel Fallström (1858 - 1937)

Julens alla vackra klockor, ringen
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Julens alla vackra klockor, ringen,
    bringen 
öfver jorden fröjd och frid! 
    Klingen 
liksom himmelska ackorder 
uti lifvets split och strid! 

Julens ängel, du, den ljusa, blida, 
    vida 
dina vingar sträck i julenatt! 
    Bida 
må du som en hoppets ängel 
vid den tröskel sorgen ständigt satt!

Frusna hjärtan må i natt du värma,
    närma
dem barmhärighetens bord!
    Fjärma
lidandet, förvisa sorgen
för en timma från den arma jord!

Julens alla vackra klockor, klingen, 
    ringen 
kärlek öfver land och haf! 
    Ingen 
må i natt den andre hata, 
ingen vara herre, ingen slaf! 

Genom vinternattens mörker tunga 
    sjunga 
änglarna ännu som förr,
    sjunga
"Ära vare Gud i höjden, frid på jorden!" 
framför krubbans dörr.
