It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
Medium Bossa Nova Feel
Key of C (arr. Song)

Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 D7 G G7
It came upon the midnight clear, that glorious song of old
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G7 Cmaj7
From angels bending near the Earth, to touch their harps of gold
E7 Am7
Peace on the Earth and goodwill to men,
Gmaj7 D7 G G7
From heaven’s all gracious king
Cmaj Fm9/Ab Cmaj7 Bdim7 Am7 Fmaj7 G7 Cmaj
The world in solemn stillness lay, to hear the angels sing

*turnaround (Dm7 /// G7 //// Cmaj7)

Verse 2:
Still through the cloven skies they come, with peaceful wings unfurled
And still their heavenly music floats, O’er all the weary world
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing
And ever o’er its Babel sounds, the blessed angels sing

Verse 3:
O 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
