See in Mary's arms reposing, Christ, by highest heaven adored; Come, your circle round him closing, Pious hearts that love the Lord. 2 Come, ye poor; no pomp of station Robes the Child your hearts adore. He, the Lord of all creation, Shares your want, is weak and poor. Oxen, round about behold them, Rafters naked, cold and bare; See the shepherds, God has told them, That the Lord of life lies there. 3 Come, ye children blithe and merry, This one Child your model make; Christmas holly, leaf and berry, All be prized for his dear sake. Come, ye gentle hearts and tender, Come, ye spirits keen and bold; All in all your homage render, Weak and mighty, young and old. 4 High above a star is shining, And the wise men haste from far. Come, glad hearts and spirits pining; 'Tis for you has risen the star. Let us bring our poor oblations, Thanks and love and faith and praise; Come, ye peoples, come ye nations, All in all your homage raise.

It Came Upon the Midnight Clear

Author: Edmund H. Sears Hymnal: WinS1996 #70 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth, To touch their harps of gold: "Peace on the earth, good will to men, From heaven's all gracious King." The world in solemn stillness lay, To hear the angels sing! 2 Still through the cloven skies they come, With peaceful wings unfurled, And still their heavenly music floats Over all the weary world: Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hovering wing, And ever over its Babel sounds The blessed angels sing! 3 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: O rest beside the weary road, And hear the angels sing! 4 For lo, the days are hastening on, By prophet bards foretold, When with the ever circling years Comes round the age of gold; When peace shall over all the earth Its ancient splendors fling, And the whole world send back the song Which now the angels sing!
