Author: Thomas Hastings, 1784-1872 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10096 Lyrics: 1 Bright angels on the wing,
At silent hour of night,
Proclaim aloud the newborn King,
’Mid floods of heav’nly light.
The wakeful shepherds hear
And tremble at the sound,
Till words of love dispel their fear,
And breathe sweet peace around.
Till words of love dispel their fear,
And breathe sweet peace around.
2 Then from the blazing sky,
Is heard th’enraptured strain:
"Glory to God, to God on high,"
Peace and good will to men.
Ye woods and rocks and hills,
Reverberate the song,
Till man the holy impulse feels,
And rolls the tide along.
Till man the holy impulse feels,
And rolls the tide along.
Glory to God on high,
Good will to men be given;
Celestial peace below the sky,
And endless joy in Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: [Bright angels on the wing]
