Midnight Clear Lyrics

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 heavens all gracious King!

The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing

Interlude

Still through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled

And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world

Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing

And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing

Interlude

Look now, for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing

Oh rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing

Come rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing

Interlude
