Of peace on earth, good will to men.
And in despair I bowed my head;
"There is no peace on earth," I said,
"For hate is strong, and mocks the song

The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
With peace on earth, good will to men."

with the angelic hosts proclaim,

offspring of the Virgin's womb:

hail the incarnate Deity,
pleased with us in flesh to dwell,
Jesus, our Immanuel;
Hark! the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King"
Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hail the Sun of Righteousness!
Light and life to all he brings,
risen with healing in his wings.
Mild he lays his glory by,
born that we no more may die,
born to raise us from the earth,
born to give us second birth;
Hark! the herald angels ...
A very interesting and important part of American history, and black culture in particular, is that of Ragtime music.
Like jazz, blues, rock and roll or swing, ragtime is completely unique and original to the United States.
It is rooted in classical music training, yet its particular style comes from the black shoe shiners of the early Twentieth Century, when one of the cultural standards in most public activity was to have polished or shined shoes. The many hours, days, months and years in this trade resulted in the men and "shoe-shine boys" deriving significant entertainment value from it, who developed it virtually into an art form. They developed many clever, time-saving and near rhythmical, show-like tactics with their rags, and with this came the featuring of "syncopated rhythm". Eventually, an entirely new style of music was born. This music was known as Ragtime music. Perhaps the greatest composer of Ragtime music was Scott Joplin, though there were others as well.
