Angels We Have Heard On High

Angels we have heard on high Sweetly singing o'er the plains And the mountains in reply Echo back their joyous strains Gloria in excelsis Deo Gloria in excelsis Deo Shepherds, why this jubilee? Why your joyous strains prolong? Say what may the tidings be Which inspire your heavenly song? Come to Bethlehem and see Him whose birth the angels sing Come, adore on bended knee Christ, the Lord, the newborn King See within a manger laid Jesus, Lord of heaven and earth Mary, Joseph lend your aid With us sing our Savior's birth
