| 206 | Yes, Lord!#207 | 208 |
1 Angels we have heard on high
Singing sweetly o'er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echo back their joyous strains.
Refrain:
Gloria in excelsis Deo,
Gloria in excelsis Deo.
2 Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
Say what may the tidings be,
Which inspire your heavenly song? [Refrain]
3 Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing;
Come adore, on bended knee,
Christ, the Lord, the newborn King. [Refrain]
