Angels we have heard on high,
Singing
sweetly through the night,
And
the mountains, in reply,
Echoing
their brave delight.
Refrain
2
Shepherds,
why this jubilee?
Why
this songs of happy cheer?
What
great brightness did you see?
What
glad tidings did you hear?
3
Come
to Bethlehem and see
Him
whose birth the angels sing;
Come
adore, on bended knee,
Christ
the Lord, the newborn King.
4
See
Him in a manger laid,
Whom
the angels praise above;
Mary,
Joseph, lend your aid,
While
we raise our hearts in love.
