"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,
Gloria, in excelsis Deo,

Shepherds, 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,

Come on [spoken]
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,

Gloria, in excelsis Deo,
Gloria, (gloria) in excelsis Deo
