Rolling Downward Through The Midnight

Robert Lowry


Tom: D

        D                    D
Rolling downward through the midnight
                                   A7
Comes a glorious burst of heav'nly song
      D              D
Tis a chorus full of sweetness
        E       E7           A
And the singers are an angel throng

[Refrain]

      A7                       D
Glory Glory glory glory in the highest
       A7                           A7
On the earth good will and peace to men (and peace to men)
         D                           G
Down the ages down the ages send the echo
        D          A7      D
Let the glad earth shout a-gain

[Verse 2]

         D                D
Wonering shepards see the glory
                                 A7
Hear the word the sining ones de-clare
       D              D
At the manger fall in worship
          E     E7                  A
While the music fills the quivering air

[Refrain]

      A7                       D
Glory Glory glory glory in the highest
       A7                           A7
On the earth good will and peace to men (and peace to men)
         D                           G
Down the ages down the ages send the echo
        D          A7      D
Let the glad earth shout a-gain


[Verse 3]
           D               D
Christ the savior God's an-ointed
                                   A7
Comes to earth our fearful dedt to pay
       D             D
Man of sorrow and re-jected
        E    E7                   A
Lamb of God, that takes the sin a-way

[Refrain]

      A7                       D
Glory Glory glory glory in the highest
       A7                           A7
On the earth good will and peace to men (and peace to men)
         D                           G
Down the ages down the ages send the echo
        D          A7      D
Let the glad earth shout a-gain
