Angels We Have Heard on High Lyrics

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!

Joyful, joyful, we adore thee
God of glory and Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before thee
Opening to the sun above

Melt the clouds of sin and sadness
Drive the darkness of doubt away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us up with the light of day

So give God the Glory
Me say we give Him the glory
Give God the Glory
Me say we give Him the glory

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

Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Joyful, joyful, we adore thee
God of glory and Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before thee
Opening up to the sun above

All thy works with joy surround thee
Earth and Heaven reflect thy rays
Stars and angels sing around thee
Center of unbroken praise

So give God the Glory
Me say we give Him the glory
Give God the Glory
Me say we give Him the glory

Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, in excelsis Deo
