LYRIC

Calm On The Listening Ear Of Night
Come Heavenโ€™s Melodious Strains,
Where Wild Judea Stretches Forth
Her Silver Mantled Plains.
Celestial Choirs From Courts Above
Shed Sacred Glories There,
And Angels, With Their Sparkling Lyres,
Make Music On The Air.

The Answering Hills Of Palestine
Send Back The Glad Reply;
And Greet, From All Their Holy Heights,
The Day-Spring From On High.
Oโ€™er The Blue Depths Of Galilee
There Comes A Holier Calm,
And Sharon Waves, In Solemn Praise,
Her Silent Groves Of Palm.

โ€œGlory To God!โ€ The Lofty Strain
The Realm Of Ether Fills;
How Sweeps The Song Of Solemn Joy
Oโ€™er Judahโ€™s Sacred Hills!
โ€œGlory To God!โ€ The Sounding Skies
Loud With Their Anthems Ring,
โ€œPeace To The Earth; Good Will To Men,
From Heavenโ€™s Eternal King!โ€

Light On Thy Hills, Jerusalem!
The Savior Now Is Born,
And Bright On Bethlehemโ€™s Joyous Plains
Breaks The First Christmas Morn.
And Brightly On Moriahโ€™s Brow
Crowned With Her Temple Spires,
Which First Proclaim The Newborn Light,
Clothed With Its Orient Fires.

This Day Shall Christian Tongues Be Mute,
And Christian Hearts Be Cold?
Oh, Catch The Anthem That From Heaven
Oโ€™er Judahโ€™s Mountains Rolled.
When Burst Upon That Listening Night
The High And Solemn Lay:
โ€œGlory To God, On Earth Be Peace,โ€
Salvation Comes Today!
