Sweetly singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the glad song's tidings breathe
Which inspire your heavenly song?
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Come to Bethlehem and see
Christ whose birth the angels sing
Come adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord, the newborn King
See Him in a manger laid
Whom the choirs of angels praise
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid
While our hearts in love we raise
How could Heaven's heart not break
On the day, the day that You came?
Salvation's reason to celebrate
On the day, the day that You came
Gloria, gloria, gloria
Angels we have heard on high Sweetly singing o'er the plains And the mountains in reply Echoing their joyous strains Shepherds, why this jubilee? Why your joyous strains prolong? What the glad song's tidings breathe Which inspire your heavenly song? Gloria in excelsis Deo Gloria in excelsis Deo Come to Bethlehem and see Christ whose birth the angels sing Come adore on bended knee Christ the Lord, the newborn King See Him in a manger laid Whom the choirs of angels praise Mary, Joseph, lend your aid While our hearts in love we raise How could Heaven's heart not break On the day, the day that You came? Salvation's reason to celebrate On the day, the day that You came Gloria, gloria, gloria Explain Request ×
