Song Lyrics

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echos in their joyous strains

Glor-or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or-ria
In excelsis Deo!
Glor-or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or-ria
In excelsis De-e-o!

Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your gladtime strain prolong?
Say what may the tidings be?
Which inspire your heavenly song?

Glor-or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or-ria
In excelsis Deo!
Glor-or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or-ria
In excelsis De-e-o!

Come to Bethl'em, come and see
Whose birth the angels sing
Come, adore on bended knee
The infant Christ, the newborn King

Glor-or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or-ria
In excelsis Deo!
Glor-or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or, Or-or-or-or-or-ria
In excelsis De-e-o!
