Michael W. Smith & Friends: The Spirit of Christmas cover
13. The Darkest Midnight (feat. Bono)
Album: Michael W. Smith & Friends: The Spirit of Christmas
Artist: Michael W. Smith
         
 

The darkest midnight in December / No snow nor hail nor winter storm / Shall hinder for us to remember / The Babe on this night was born / With shepherds, we are come to see / This lovely Infant’s glorious charms / Born of a Maid, as the prophet said / The God of love in Mary’s arms // Ye blessed angels join our voices / Let your gilded wings beat fluttering o’er / While every soul set free rejoices / And everyone must adore / We’ll sing and pray that God as always / May our friends and family defend / God grant us grace in all our days / A merry Christmas and a happy end


Lyrics: “The Darkest Midnight” Traditional Irish Carol / Music by Michael W. Smith / © 2014 This Is Your Time Music (ASCAP) (Admin. at CapitolCMGPublishing.com) Low Whistle Recorded by David Hamilton at Studiowave // Michael W. Smith: Synth / David Hamilton: Synth / Skip Cleavinger: Low Whistle
