It Came Upon a Midnight Clear

[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 hea'en's all gracious King."
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing

[Verse 2]
Still through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled
And still their hea'enly music floats
O'er all the weary world
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hov'ring wind
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing
