"Angels We Have Heard On High"
- 19th Century France
1- 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
2- Shepherds why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the glad-some tidings be.
Which inspire your heavenly song?
