Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er 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
Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Come to Bethlehem and see
Christ whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord, the newborn King

See Him in a manger laid
Whom the choirs of angels praise;
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid
While our hearts in love we raise

Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, in excelsis Deo
How could heaven's heart not break
On the day, the day that You came
Salvation's reason to celebrate
On the day, the day that You came

How could heaven's heart not break
On the day, the day that You came
Salvation's reason to celebrate
On the day, the day that You came

Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Gloria, gloria, gloria
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
