Song Lyrics

"It Came Upon A Midnight Clear"

by Sara Groves
Album: O Holy Night

It came upon a midnight clear
That glorious song of old
And 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, to hear them sing

O beneath life's crushing load
Whose forms are bending low
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps so slow
Look now, for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing
Oh rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels, oh hear the angels sing

Peace on the earth good will to men
from heavens all gracious king
the world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels, to hear them sing
Sing, sing, 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 the sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels, the angels sing, sing, sing

And I can hear the angels sing
And I can hear the angels
And I still hear the angels sing
I still hear the angels sing
Glory, Hallelujah
And I can hear the angels sing
And I still hear the angels sing
And I still hear the angels
Glory, Hallelujah
Oh I can hear
Oh I can hear (Glory Hallelujah)
Glorious song of old (Glory Hallelujah
It came upon a midnight clear
(Glory Hallelujah, Peace on earth)
Glory Hallelujah, Peace on earth
