O

1. Angels we have heard on high, Sweetly singin o’er the plains, And the mountains in reply, Echoeing their joyous strains.

Gloria in excelsis Deo, Gloria in excelsis Deo.

2. Shepherds, why this jubilee?

Why your joyous strains prolong?

What the gladsome tidings be Which inspire your heavenly song?

Gloria, etc.

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

Gloria, etc.

D

4. See within a manger laid Jesus, Lord of heaven and earth!

Mary, Joseph, lend your aid.

With us sing our Savior’s birth.

Gloria, etc.
