Description
It Came Upon a Midnight Clear
Author: Edmund H. Sears (1849)
Tune: CAROL (Willis)
It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold:
To touch their harps of gold:
“Peace on the earth, goodwill to all,
From heav’n’s all-gracious king.”
From heav’n’s all-gracious king.”
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
To hear the angels sing.
Still through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled,
With peaceful wings unfurled,
And still their heav’nly music floats
O’er all the weary world.
O’er all the weary world.
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hov’ring wing,
They bend on hov’ring wing,
And ever o’er its babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.
The blessed angels sing.
All you, beneath your heavy load,
By care and guilt bent low,
By care and guilt bent low,
Who toil along a dreary way
With painful steps and slow:
With painful steps and slow:
Look up, for golden is the hour,
Come swiftly on the wing,
Come swiftly on the wing,
The Prince was born to bring you peace;
Of Him the angels sing.
Of Him the angels sing.
For lo, the days have come to pass
By prophets seen of old,
By prophets seen of old,
When down into the circling years
Came Christ as was foretold.
Came Christ as was foretold.
His word of peace shall to the earth
God’s ancient promise bring,
God’s ancient promise bring,
And all who take this gift will hear
The song the angels sing.
The song the angels sing.
