142 ~ Angels We Have Heard On High


1

Angels we have heard on high, Singing sweetly through the night, And the mountains in reply Echoing their brave delight.


Refrain

Gloria in excelsis Deo, Gloria in excelsis Deo.

2

Shepherds, why this jubilee? Why these songs of happy cheer? What great brightness did you see? What glad tidings did you hear?

3

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

4

See Him in a manger laid Whom the angels praise above; Mary, Joseph, lend your aid, While we raise our hearts in love.
