It Came Upon The Midnight Clear
Author: Edmund H. Sears Hymnal: Reformed Press Hymnal #228 (1934) Lyrics: 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 heav'ns all-gracious King:"
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
2 Still thro' the cloven skies they come,
With peaceful wings unfurled,
And still their heav'nly music floats
O'er all the weary world:
Above its sad and lonely plains
They bend on hov'ring wing:
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.
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.
4 For lo, the days are hast'ning on,
By prophet bards foretold,
When with the ever-circling years
Comes 'round the age of gold:
When peace shall over all the earth
Its ancient splendors fling,
And the whole world send back the song
Which now the angels sing.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [It came upon the midnight clear]

Author: Edmund H. Sears Hymnal: Tabernacle Hymns #322 (1960) Lyrics: 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.
2 Still thro' the cloven skies they come,
With peaceful wings unfurled,
And still their heav'nly music floats
O'er all the weary world:
Above its sad and lonely plains
They bend on hove'ing wing,
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.
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.
4 For lo, the days are hast'ning on,
By prophet bards foretold,
When with the ever-circling years
Comes round the age of gold:
When peace shall over all the earth
Its ancient splendors fling,
And the whole world send back the song
Which now the angels sing.
Amen.

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.
2 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.

Whose forms are bending low,
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow,
Look now! for glad and golden hours

Which now the angels sing. Topics: Christmas Languages: English Tune Title: [It came upon the midnight clear]

Sears Hymnal: Timeless Truths #912 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D 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, good will to men,From Heav’n’s all-gracious King.”The world in solemn stillness lay,To hear the angels sing.Still through the cloven skies they comeWith peaceful wings unfurled,And still their heav’nly music floatsO’er all the weary world;Above its sad and lowly plains,They bend on hov’ring wing,And ever o’er its Babel soundsThe blessed angels sing.Yet with the woes of sin and strifeThe world has suffered long;Beneath the angel strain have rolledTwo thousand years of wrong;And man, at war with man, hears notThe love-song which they bring;Oh, hush the noise, ye men of strifeAnd hear the angels sing.And ye, beneath life’s crushing load,Whose forms are bending low,Who toil along the climbing wayWith painful steps and slow,Look now! for glad and golden hoursCome swiftly on the wing.Oh, rest beside the weary road,And hear the angels sing!
