It Came Upon A Midnight Clear (Original Mix) Lyrics

It Came Upon The Midnight Clear - Mitch Miller

Written by:S.E.Willis/Sears

It came upon the midnight clear

 

That glorious song of old

 

From angels playing near the earth

 

To touch their harps of gold

 

Peace on the earth could will two men

 

From heaven's all-gracious king

 

The world in solemn stillness lay

 

To hear the angels sing

 

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

 

O ye beneath life's crushing load

 

Whose forms are bending low

 

Who toil along the climbing way

 

With painful steps and slow

 

Look now for glad and golden hours

 

Come swiftly on the wing

 

Oh rest beside the weary road

 

And hear the angels sing

 

For lo the days are hastening on

 

By prophets seen of old

 

When with the ever-circling years

 

Shall come the time foretold

 

When the new heaven and earth shall own

 

The prince of peace their king

 

And the whole world send back the song

 

 

Which now the angels sing
