Angels We Have Heard on High
James Chadwick
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
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
Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Shepherd 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
See Him in a manger laid
Jesus, Lord of heaven and earth
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid
With all sing our Savior's worth
Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, in excelsis Deo
