lifeblood: songs: lyrics: angels we have heard on high


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 to bethlehem and see
in 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 him in a manger laid
whom the choirs of angels praise
mary joseph lend your aid
while our hearts in love we raise

gloria
in excelsis deo
gloria
in excelsis deo
