It Came Upon A augmentedA Midnight Clear Chords
Sears / Willis

  C majorC   FF    C majorC
It came upon the midnight clear,
   FF    D7D7   G7G7
That glorious song of old,
   C majorC   FF    C majorC
From angels bending near the earth
  FF      G7G7    C majorC
To touch their harps of gold!
 E7E7            A minorAm
"Peace on the earth, good will to men,
   G+G    D7D7      G+G
From heaven's all gracious King!
  C majorC    FF   C majorC
The world in solemn stillness lay
  FF    G7G7   C majorC
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.

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

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