Julie Andrews
It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
It came upon a midnight clear that glorious song of oldFrom angels bending near the earth to touch their harps of goldPeace on the earth goodwill to men from heaven all gracious KingThe world in solemn stillness lay to hear the angels singFor lo the days are hastening on by prophets seen of oldWhen with the ever circling years shall come the time foretoldWhen the new heaven and earth shall on the Prince of peace their kingAnd the whole world send back the song which now the angels singStill through the cloven skies they come with peaceful wings unfurledAnd still their heavenly music floats o'er all the weary worldAbove its sad and lowly plains they bend on hovering wingAnd ever o'er its Babel sounds the blessed angels singYet with the woes of sin and strife the world has suffered longBeneath the heavenly strain have rolled two thousand years of wrongAnd man at war with man hears not the tidings which they bringO hush the noise ye men of strife and hear the angels singO ye, beneath life's crushing load whose forms are bending lowLetras de cancionesWho toil along the climbing way with painful steps and slowLook now for glad and golden hours come swiftly on the wingO rest beside the weary road and hear the angels singFor lo the days are hastening on by prophets seen of oldWhen with the ever circling years shall come the time foretoldWhen peace shall over all the earth its ancient splendors flingAnd the whole world give back the song which now the angels sing
