mahalia jackson - it came upon a midnight clear lyrics
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, goodwill to men
from heavens all gracious king!”
the world in solemn stillness lay
to hear the angels 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 its sad and lowly plains
they bend on hovering wing
and ever o’er its babel sounds
the blessed angels sing
o 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;
oh rest beside the weary road
and hear the angels sing
for lo! the days are hastening on
by prophets seen of old
when with the ever-circling years
shall come the time foretold
when the new heaven and earth shall own
the prince of peace, their king
and the whole world send back the song
which now the angels sing
