Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing over the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Shepherds, why this exaltation?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
Say what may the tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Come to Bethlehem and see him
For whose birth the angels sing
Come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, the newborn King
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
