[Verse 1]
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
Mm, mm

[Verse 2]
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly, sweetly through the night
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their brief delight

[Chorus]
Gloria, gloria
Gloria in excelsis Deo

[Verse 3]
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?

[Chorus]
Gloria, gloria
Gloria in excelsis Deo
[Verse 4]
Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing
Come, adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord, the newborn King

[Chorus]
Gloria, gloria
Gloria in excelsis Deo
