Cantus - Angels, We Have Heard on High Lyrics

Angeli canunt praecones nuper natum Dominum
Pacem nobis, veniamque erga genus humanum
Gentes surgite gaudentes, cum caelicolis canentes
Dei Filium, Regem, natum iam in Bethlehem
Ecce, canunt angeli gloriam novo Regi!
Amen

[The angels sing heralding the new-born Lord,
Peace to us and pardon for humanity
Joyful, all ye nations rise
With the heavenly hosts proclaim
God's Son, our King, is born in Bethlehem
Hark the herald angels sing
"Glory to the new-born King!"
Amen]

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains

Gloria Deo in excelsis!

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

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

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