BRACK: About the carol “It Came Upon the Midnight Clear”
By Elliott Brack | At this time of year, words of Christmas carols reverberate in my mind, giving me pleasure. This carol, “It came upon the midnight clear,” has particularly been on my mind this year. The carol comes from 1849, when Edward Sears, pastor of the Unitarian Church in Wayland, Mass., wrote the words in a poem. It is said that the poem was first heard by parishioners gathered in Sears’ home on Christmas Eve.
