Verse 1
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in re-ply
Echoing their joyous strains
Verse 2
Shepherds, why this jubi-lee?
Why your joyous strains pro--long?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heav’nly song
Verse 3
Come to Bethle-hem and see
Christ whose birth the angels sing
Come adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord the newborn King
Verse 4
See Him in a manger laid
Whom the choirs of angels praise
Mary Joseph lend you aid
While our hearts in love we raise
