Angels we have heard on high, Sweetly singing o'er the plain; And the mountains in reply Echo back their joyous strain. (Refrain) Glória in excélsis Deo! Glória in excélsis Deo! |

Shepherds why this jubilee? Why your joyous strain prolong? Say what may the tidings be Which inspire your heav'nly song. Glória in excélsis Deo! Glória in excélsis Deo! |

Come to Bethlehem come and see Him whose birth the angels sing; Come adore on bended knee, Christ the Lord, the newborn King. Glória in excélsis Deo! Glória in excélsis Deo! |
