Lyrics Celtic Woman – Angels We Have Heard On High
Text:
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o’er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
Oh
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
Christ whose birth the angels sing
Come, adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord, the new-born 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
Glory, let the angels sing, in excelsis, in excelsis Deo
Glory to the new-born king, in excelsis Deo
Glory, let the angels sing, in excelsis, in excelsis Deo
Glory to the new-born king, in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo, Gloria in excelsis Deo
Glory, let the angels sing, in excelsis, in excelsis Deo
Glory to the new-born king, in excelsis Deo
In excelsis Deo, in excelsis Deo, Deo
