- The best version of this song, in my opinion.
Old lyrics by Olivia Blyberg with additions by Sofia Karlsson, to a melody by Sofia Karlsson.
Live at TV4 Nyhetsmorgon, January 2, 2010.
With Gustaf Ljunggren, lap steel, and Sofie Livebrant, piano and vocals.
The song is released on the album "Jul i Folkton" (various artists, 2005), and on "Folkjul" (various artists, 2007), and even on the bonus CD to the compilation "Det allra bästa 1999-2009", but the arrangements on the CD's are quite different from this one.

Lyrics translated by Gunnar Idenstam in the booklet of the CD "Folkjul" (Swedish lyrics below):
Peace on Earth
In starry night how clear the words
Peace on earth, peace on earth
They rang out, oh how wonderful
Peace on earth, peace on earth
The Saviour came with hope and peace
But in my soul was night and strife
Nor did I find in all my life
Peace on earth, peace on earth
May the weary find refuge
Peace in God, peace in God
As sweet as in a mother's arms
Praise to God, praise to God
O light and peace of Christmas-time
Guide me through the darkest hours
And bring me home to heaven's calm
Peace on earth, peace on earth
.

Frid på jord
(Tekst av Olivia Blyberg og Sofia Karlsson)
I stjärnfull natt det ljöd så klart
Frid på jord, frid på jord
Det klingade väl underbart
Frid på jord, frid på jord
Försonaren kom med hopp och frid
Men i min själ var natt och strid
Ej fann jag under min levnadstid
Frid på jord, frid på jord
Må den trötte finna en hamn
Ro hos Gud, ro hos Gud
Så ljuvlig som en moders famn
Lov ske Gud, lov ske Gud
Du julens klara ljus och frid
Mig lys igenom mörkrets tid
Och för mig hem till min himmels ro
Frid på jord, frid på jord
