Angels we haveheard on high
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plain
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous song prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing;
Come on adore on bended knee
Christ, the Lord, our newborn King
Gloria in excelsis Deo
On the day that Christ was born
The angels sing this heavenly song
In excelsis Deo
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plain
Angels we have heard on high
Angels we have heard on high
In excelsis Deo
In excelsis Deo
In excelsis Deo.
