Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o’er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains. .
Refrain:
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo! .
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heav’nly song? .
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo! .
Come to Bethlehem and see
Him Whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, the newborn King. .
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo! .
See Him in a manger laid,
Whom the choirs of angels praise;
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid,
While our hearts in love we raise .
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
