Letra Angels we have heard on high - Villancicos
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.
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous songs prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
which inspire your heavenly song?
Gloria in excelsis Deo,
Gloria in excelsis Deo.
Come to Bethlehem, and see
Him whose birth the Angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee
Christ, the Lord, our newborn King.
Gloria in excelsis Deo,
Gloria in excelsis Deo.
