It Came Upon A Midnight Clear Lyrics

(Edmund H. Sears - Richard S. Willis)

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 sing.

For low the days are hast'ning on
By prophets time foretold
When with the ever circling years
Around the age of gold.

When peace, shall over all the earth
It's ancient splendors fling
And the whole world give back the song
Which now the angels sing...
