Angels We Have Heard on High (traditional)

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

Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the glad song tidings be
which inspire your heavenly song?
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in escelsis Deo

Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing
Come, adore on bended knee
Christ, the Lord, the newborn King
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
