It came upon a 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
It came upon a midnight clear
Gloria in excelsis
Still through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled
And still their heavenly music floats
Over all the weary world
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on heavenly wings
Oh, so (on a midnight)
It came upon midnight clear (on a midnight)
And ever over its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing (on a midnight)
A midnight clear (on a midnight)
Well, it came upon a midnight clear
Midnight clear, yeah, yeah
It came upon a midnight clear
Angel's sound, can't you hear?
Can you hear them singing
Glory to the newborn King
It came upon a midnight clear
Angel's sound, can't you hear?
As they play their harps
They sing a love song to the Lord
It came upon a midnight clear
Angel's sound, can't you hear?
Peace on earth, goodwill to men
Oh, you can be born again right now
It came upon a midnight clear
Angel's sound, can't you hear?
Can't you hear them singing
Glory, glory, glory?
It came upon a midnight clear
Angel's sound, can't you hear?
Glory to the newborn King
It came upon a midnight clear
Angel's sound, can't you hear?
