It Came Upon a Midnight Clear

Edmund Hamilton Sears, Richard Storrs Willis

[Verse 1]
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, good will to men
From Heaven's all gracious King"
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing

[Verse 2]
Yet with the woes of sin and strife
The world has suffered long
Beneath the angel strain have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong
And man at war with man, hears not
The love-song which they bring
O hush the noise, ye men of strife
And hear the angels sing

Hear the angels sing

[Verse 3]
And 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
O rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing

[Outro]
Hear the angels sing
Hear the angels sing
Hallelujah, Christ the Savior is born
Hallelujah, Christ the Savior is born
Hallelujah, Christ the Savior is born
Hallelujah, Christ the Savior is born (is born)
