            ……….It came upon a midnight clear

                      D        B7      E7
                That glorious song of old

                     A      D       A            
                From angels bending near the earth

                   D           E7        A  
                To touch their harps of gold
Enter the drums, A D x2 (Instrumental Bridge) Still through the cloven skies they come With peaceful wings unfurled And still their heavenly music floats O'er all the weary world
                 E                   F#m

                     G                 D     
                From heaven's gracious King;
A D A Yet with the woes of sin and strife, The world has suffered long. Beneath the blessed angel strain have rolled Two-thousand years of wrong.
                E                    F#m

                       D         E
