130. It Came Upon the Midnight Clear

SDA Hymnal

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 heaven's all-gracious King;

The world in solemn stillness lay,

To hear the angels sing.

Verse 1

Still through the cloven skies they come,

With peaceful wings unfurled,

And still their heavenly music floats

O'er all the weary world;

Above its sad and lowly plains

They bend on hovering wing,

And ever o'er its Babel sounds

The blessed angels sing.

Verse 2

And ye, beneath life's crushing load,

Whose forms are bending low,

Who toil along the climbing way

With painful steps and slow;

Look now! for glad and golden hours

Come swiftly on the wing;

O rest beside the weary road,

And hear the angels sing.
