It Came Upon A Midnight Clear

   G    C        G
It came upon the midnight clear,
     C        A       D
That glorious song of old,
     G      C       G
From angels bending near the earth
   C           D        G
To touch their harps of gold!
 B7                       Em
"Peace on the earth, good will to 
men,
     D            A        D
From heaven's all gracious King!
    G        C      G
The world in solemn stillness lay
   C        D      G
To hear the angels sing.

[Verse 2]
       G           C      G
Still, through the cloven skies, 
they come
     C        A     D
With peaceful wings unfurled
    G           C        G
And still their heavenly music 
floats

     C       D     G
O'er all the weary world;
 B7               Em
Above its sad and lowly plains
     D       A        D
They bend on hovering wing.
    G    C        G
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
    C       D      G
The blessed angels sing.

[Verse 3]
    G        C       G
Yet with the woes of sin and strife
    C          A        D
The world hath suffered long;
  G         C     G
Beneath the angel-strain have rolled
    C       D         G
Two thousand years of wrong;
    B7               Em
And man, at war with man, hears not
    D         A          D
The love song which they bring:
  G        C         G
O hush the noise, ye men of strife,
    C        D      G
And hear the angels sing

[Verse 4]
    G        C       G
For lo! the days are hastening on
    C      A         D
By prophet bards foretold
      G        C    G
When, with the ever-circling years,
      C        D      G
Shall come the Age of Gold;
     B7               G
When peace shall over all the earth
     D       A         D
It's ancient splendors fling,
    G       C          G
And all the world give back the song
      C       D      G
Which now the angels sing.
