| Angels we have heard on high
|
| Sweetly singing o’er the plains
|
| And the mountains in reply
|
| Echoing their joyous strains
|
| Shepherds, why this jubilee?
|
| Why your joyous strains prolong?
|
| What the glad song’s tidings breathe
|
| Which inspire your heavenly song?
|
| Gloria in excelsis Deo
|
| Gloria in excelsis Deo
|
| Come to Bethlehem and see
|
| Christ whose birth the angels sing
|
| Come adore on bended knee
|
| Christ the Lord, the newborn King
|
| See Him in a manger laid
|
| Whom the choirs of angels praise
|
| Mary, Joseph, lend your aid
|
| While our hearts in love we raise
|
| How could Heaven’s heart not break
|
| On the day, the day that You came?
|
| Salvation’s reason to celebrate
|
| On the day, the day that You came
|
| Gloria, gloria, gloria |
