Songtext von It Came Upon a Midnight Clear

It came upon the midnight clear That glorious song of old From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold Oh ye, beneath life's crushing load Whose forms are bending low Who toil along the climbing way With painful steps so slow Peace on the earth, good will to men From heaven’s all-gracious king The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels To hear the angels sing Look now! For glad and golden hours Come swiftly on the wing Oh, rest beside the weary road And hear the angels sing! Peace on the earth, good will to men From heaven’s all-gracious king The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels To hear the angels sing Oh, hallelujah! Hallelujah, hallelujah! Still through the broken skies they come With peaceful wings unfurled And still their heavenly music floats Over the weary world
