Angels we have heard on high…
Sweetly singing o’er the plains
And the mountains in reply
echoing their joyous strains.
(2) Glo-ria in excelsis Deo
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavn’ly song?
(2) Glo-ria in excelsis Deo
Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing
Come adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord the new-born King
(2) Glo-ria in excelsis Deo
