What Sound Upon the Midnight Air? View/print sheet music:     SATB Lyrics: What sound upon the midnight air o'er Bethlehem is ringing? The echo of an anthem fair In answer to an ageless prayer The angels joyful tidings bear And cannot cease from singing: Gloria in excelsis Deo And on the earth be peace, good will toward men What light hath rent the midnight sky, from realms celestial springing? O'er Judah mighty legions fly Ablaze in glory from on high Creation trembles at their cry And cannot cease from singing: Gloria in excelsis Deo And on the earth be peace, good will toward men Sing gloria, ye men and angels mingling Abide in peace Good will increase And never cease from singing Gloria in excelsis Deo
