It came upon the midnight clear
Author: Edmund Hamilton Sears (1810-1876) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #70 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Angels 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:
'Through all the earth, goodwill and peace
from heaven's all-gracious king!'
The world in solemn stillness lay
to hear the angels sing.
2 With sorrow brought by sin and strife
the world has suffered long
and, since the angels sang, have passed
two thousand years of wrong:
the nations, still at war, hear not
the love-song which they bring:
O hush the noise and cease the strife,
to hear the angels sing!
3 And those whose journey now is hard,
whose hope is burning low,
who tread the rocky path of life
with painful steps and slow:
O listen to the news of love
which makes the heavens ring!
O rest beside the weary road
and hear the angels sing!
4 And still the days are hastening on —
by prophets seen of old —
towards the fulness of the time
when comes the age foretold:
then earth and heaven renewed shall see
the prince of peace, their king;
and all the world repeat the song
which now the angels sing. Scripture: Psalm 46:8-10 Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL

You holy angels bright
Author: Richard Baxter, 1615-91; John Hampden Gurney, 1802-62 Hymnal: Together in Song #108 (1999) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Topics: Saints Days and Holy Days St Michael and All Angels Lyrics: 1 You holy angels bright,
who wait at God's right hand,
or through the realms of light
fly at your Lord's command,
assist our song,
for else the theme
too high doth seem
for mortal tongue.
2 You blessèd souls at rest,
who ran this earthly race,
and now, from sin released,
behold the Saviour's face,
his praises sound,
as in his sight
you now delight
to see him crowned.
3 You saints who toil below,
adore your heavenly King,
and onward as you go
some joyful anthem sing;
take what he gives
and praise him still
through good and ill,
who ever lives.
4 All nations of the earth,
extol the world's great King:
with melody and mirth
God's glorious praises sing.
In him rejoice,
and there proclaim
his holy name
with sounding voice.
5 My soul, take now your part:
triumph in God above,
and with a well-tuned heart
sing out the songs of love;
and all my days
let no distress
not fears suppress
his joyful praise. Scripture: Colossians 3:16-17 Languages: English Tune Title: DARWALL

Brighter visions beam afar;

Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord, descending
In His temple shall appear:

Angels, from the realms of glory
Around the throne of God a band
Author: J. M. Neale Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #166 (1920) Topics: Holy Days St. Michael and All Angels Lyrics: 1 Around the throne of God a band
Of bright and glorious angels stand,
Sweet harps within their hands they hold,
And on their heads are crowns of gold.
2 Some wait around Him ready still
To sing His praise and do His will,
And some, when He commands them, go
To guard His servants here below.
3 Lord, give Thine angels every day
Command to guard us on our way,
And bid them every evening keep
Their watch around us while we sleep.
4 So shall no wicked thing draw near
To do us harm, or cause us fear;
And we shall dwell, when life is past,
With angels round Thy throne at last. Languages: English Tune Title: ANGELS
