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

Shepherds why this jubilee
Why your joyous songs prolong
What the gladsome 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 new-born King.


See Him in a manger laid
Jesus Lord of heaven and earth
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid
With us in our Saviour's birth

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo

In excelsis Deo
