Lyrics

[Intro]
Gloria, Gloria
In excelsis Deo
[Verse 1]
Hark, the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King"
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled
Joyful, all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With angelic hosts proclaim
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"
Hark, the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King"
[Outro]
Gloria (Gloria)
Gloria (Gloria)
Et in terra pax (In terra pax)
[Verse 2]
It came upon the midnight clear
That glorious song of old
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold
"Peace on the earth, good will to men
From Heaven's all-gracious King"
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing
[Verse 3]
Still through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled
And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing
[Outro]
The blessed angels sing
Gloria in excelsis Deo
