It Came Upon The Midnight Clear Lyrics - Christmas Favourites

It came upon the mid-night 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 Heavens 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!
