Angels We Have Heard on High lyrics

[Verse 1]
Angels have we heard on high
Singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their strains

[Verse 2]
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
That inspire your heavenly song?

[Verse 3]
See Him in a manger laid
The choirs of angels praise
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid
While hearts in love we raise

[Verse 4]
Come to Bethlehem and see
The Christ whose lips we sing
Come, adore on bended knee
Christ the newborn King
