Angels We Have Heard on High - Old 97's

Angels we have heard on high

Sweetly singing o’er the plains

And the mountains in reply

Echoin' their joyous strain

Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Shepherds, why this jubilee?

Why your joyful strains prolong?

Say what made the tidings be

Which inspire your heavenly song?

Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Gloria, in excelsis Deo

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

See within a manger lay

Jesus, Lord of heav’n and earth

Mary, Joseph lend your aid

With us, sing our Saviour’s birth

Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Gloria, in excelsis Deo
