The Angels' Song

Author: Love H. Jameson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13106 Meter: 12.12.12.12 First Line: There was darkness above, there was darkness beneath Lyrics: 1 There was darkness above, there was darkness beneath, ’Twas the darkness of night, snd the shadow of death; When the day-star of life tose amid the deep gloom, And illumined the darkness of death and the tomb. 2 As the shepherds stood watch by their flocks in the night; While they slept on the sward, 'neath the stars’ gentle light, From the portals of bliss, came an angelic train, Warbling music divine over Bethlehem’s plain. 3 To Jehovah they sang, "Highest glory be giv’n Among mortals, good will; peace on earth, joy in Heav’n"; Echo sent back the strain from each mountain and hill, "To Jehovah be glory, to mortals good will."
