It Came Upon A Midnight Clear

It came upon the midnight clear

That glorious song of old

From angels bending near the earth

To touch their harps of gold



Peace on the earth, goodwill to men

From heaven's all gracious King

The world in solemn stillness lay

To hear the angels, to hear them sing



O ye beneath life's crushing load

Whose forms are bending low

Who toil along the climbing way

With painful steps so slow



Look now for glad and golden hours

Come swiftly on the wing

Oh, rest beside the weary road

And hear the angels, and hear them sing



Singin' peace on the earth, goodwill to men

From heaven's all gracious King

The world in solemn stillness lay

To hear the angels, to hear them sing, sing, sing, sing



Still through the broken skies they come

With peaceful wings unfurled

And still their heavenly music floats

Over all the weary world



Above its sad and lowly plains

They bend on hovering wing

And ever over Babel sounds

The blessed angels, the angels sing, sing, sing



And I can hear the angels sing

And I can hear the angels

And I still hear the angels sing

And I still hear the angels



(Glory, Alleluia)

And I can hear the angels

And I still hear the angels sing

(Glory, Alleluia)

And I still hear the angels



(Glory, Alleluia)

Oh, I can hear, oh, I can hear

(Glory, Alleluia)

That glorious song of old



(Glory, Alleluia)

It came upon the midnight clear

(Peace on earth, Glory, Alleluia)

Peace on earth
