Angels We Have Heard on High
[Verse 1]
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing on the plain
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strain:

[Refrain]
Gloria in excelsius deo
Gloria in excelsius deo

[Verse 2]
Shepherds why this jubilee?
Why your joyful strains prolong?
And the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heav'nly song?

[Refrain]
Gloria in excelsius deo
Gloria in excelsius deo

[Verse 3]
Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing;
Come adore on bended knee
Christ, the Lord, the newborn King
[Refrain]
Gloria in excelsius deo
Gloria in excelsius deo

[Verse 4]
See Him in a manger laid
Whom the choir of angels praise;
Holy Spirit lend thine aid
While our hearts in love we raise

[Refrain]
Gloria in excelsius deo
Gloria in excelsius deo
