Lyrics of Angels we have heard on high

Angels we have heard on high
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly swinging o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.

Chorus:
Gloria in excelsis deo
Gloria in excelsis deo

Shepherds why this jubilee
Why your joyous strains prolong
Say what may the tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?

Chorus

Come to bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the lord, the newborn king.

Chorus

See within in a manger laid
Jesus lord of heav'n and earth
Mary, joseph lend your aid
With us sing our savior's birth
