Lyrics:

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing over the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.

Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains 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, adore on bended knee
Christ, the Lord
The newborn King.

Gloria, in excelsis Deo,
Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Gloria
Gloria
Gloria

See Him in a manger laid,
Jesus, Lord of Heaven and Earth
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid,
With us sing our Savior's birth.

Gloria, in excelsis Deo,

Gloria, in excelsis Deo,
In excelsis Deo,
In excelsis Deo
