Lyrics Gabriel's Message - Sting

Gabriel's Message

The angel gabriel from heaven came
His wings as drifted snow
His eyes as flame
«all hail"said he «thou lowly maiden mary,
Most highly favoured lady,"gloria!
«for known a blessed mother thou shalt be,
All generations laud and honor thee,
Thy son shall be emanuel,
By seers foretold
Most highly favoured lady,"gloria!
Then gentle mary meekly bowed her head
«to me be as it pleaseth god,"she said,
«my soul shall laud and magnify his holy name.»
Most highly favoured lady gloria!
Of her emanuel, the christ was born
In bethlehem all on a christmas morn
And everyone throughout the world forever saved
Most highly favoured lady gloria!
