Angels We Have Heard on High

EAngels we have E4heard on high, E3Sweetly singing E4o'er the plains,

EAnd the mountains E4in reply, E3Echo back their E4joyous strains.

EGlo -- E4o -- E3o -- E4o-ria Ein excelsis BDeo!

EGlo -- E4o -- E3o -- E4o-ria Ein excelsis ADe B-- Eo!

Shepherds, why this jubilee? Why your joyous strains prolong?
Say what may the tidings be, Which inspire your heav'nly song?

EGlo -- B/D#o -- C#mo -- Bo-ria Ein exAcelsis BDeo!

EGlo -- F#mo -- E/G#o -- Bo-ria E/G#in exAcelsis BDe -- Eo!

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

EGlo -- B/D#o -- C#mo -- Bo-ria Ein exAcelsis BDeo!

EGlo -- F#mo -- E/G#o -- Bo-ria E/G#in exAcelsis BDe -- Eo!

See within a manger laid Jesus, Lord of heav'n and earth!
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid, With us sing our Savior's birth.

EGlo -- B/D#o -- C#mo -- Bo-ria Ein exAcelsis BDeo!

EGlo -- F#mo -- E/G#o -- Bo-ria E/G#in exAcelsis BDeo,

E/G#in exAcelsis BDeo, C#min exAcelsis BDe -- Eo!
