=========================================== It Came Upon The Midnight---Caedmon's Call =========================================== Capo 5th fret G C/G G It came upon the midnight clear C G That glorious song of old. G C/G G From angels bending near the earth C D Em7 To touch their harps of gold; B7 C2 "Peace on the earth, goodwill to men, A7/C# D From heaven's all gracious King!" G C/G G The world in solemn stillness lay C D G To hear the angels sing.
And ye, beneath life's crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way With painful steps and slow, Look now, for glad and golden hours Come swiftly on the wing: And rest beside the weary road C D Em7 And hear the angels sing. Hear the angels sing 4x For lo, the days are hastening on, By prophets seen of old When with the ever circling years Shall come the time foretold When peace shall over all the earth Its ancient splendors fling, And the whole world send back the song Which now the angels sing. Hear the angels sing 4x
