Angels We Have Heard on High

Angels we have heard on high

Sweetly singing o'er the plains

And the mountains in reply

Echoing their joyous strains

Angels we have heard on high,

Singing sweetly through the night,

And the mountains in reply

Echoing their brave delight

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Oh 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

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Angels we have heard

Angels we have heard on high

Angels we have heard

Angels we have heard on high

Angels we have heard on high

Angels we have heard on high

Oh in excelsis Deo
