Angels We Have Heard On High : Sheet Music

This arrangement is based on a new harmonization of Angels we have Heard on High for SATB quartet on my site OLDFATHERCHRISTMAS.COM. This version is identicle except that it adds an alternation between the men and the women on verses 2 and 4, just for a little more variety.

Words, translated by James Chadwick

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing oer the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.

Refrain

Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!

Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?

Refrain

Come to Bethlehem and see
Christ Whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, the newborn King.

Refrain

See Him in a manger laid,
Whom the choirs of angels praise;
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid,
While our hearts in love we raise.
