Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the place,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their sweet refrain.

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.

Gloria in excelsis Deo.
Gloria in excelsis Deo.
