[00:00.582]It came upon the midnight clear
[00:06.340]That glorious song of old
[00:12.299]From angels bending near the earth
[00:18.068]To touch their harps of gold
[00:24.278]Peace on the earth good will to men
[00:30.227]From heaven's all gracious King
[00:36.177]The world in solemn stillness lay
[00:42.257]To hear the angels sing
[00:50.457]Still through the cloven skies they come
[00:56.605]With peaceful wings unfurl
[01:02.613]And still their heavenly music floats
[01:08.272]Over all the weary world
[01:14.491]Above it's sad and lowly plains
[01:20.531]They bend on hovering wing
[01:26.321]And ever over it's Babel sounds
[01:32.551]The blessed angels sing
[01:40.559]Yet with the woes of sin and strife
[01:46.899]The world has suffered long;
[01:52.819]Beneath the Angel-strain have rolled
[01:58.799]Two thousand years of wrong;
[02:04.779]And man at war with man hears not
[02:11.098]The love-song which they bring;
[02:17.318]O hush the noise ye men of strife
[02:23.627]And hear the Angels sing
[02:31.187]For lo the days are hastening on
[02:37.517]By prophets seen of old
[02:43.695]When with the ever-circling years
[02:49.824]Shall come the time foretold
[02:56.063]When the new heaven and earth shall own
[03:02.131]The Prince of Peace their King
[03:08.401]And the whole world send back the song
[03:14.638]Which now the angels sing
[03:24.898]It came upon the midnight clear (desc Willcocks) - Sir David Willcocks
