Shepherds on a hillside, watching flocks by night
Suddenly the sky awakes with heaven's radiant light
An angel of the Lord appears, their hearts are filled with fear
"Do not be afraid," he says, "good news for all is here"
Gloria, Gloria, glory to God on high
Peace on earth, goodwill to men, the Savior born tonight
Gloria, Gloria, lift your voices and sing
Emmanuel has come to us, salvation He will bring
"This will be a sign to you," the angel does proclaim
"A baby wrapped in swaddling cloths, in a manger laid"
Suddenly a multitude of heavenly hosts above
Singing praises to the Lord, declaring His great love
Gloria, Gloria, glory to God on high
Peace on earth, goodwill to men, the Savior born tonight
Gloria, Gloria, lift your voices and sing
Emmanuel has come to us, salvation He will bring
Gloria, Gloria, glory to God on high
Peace on earth, goodwill to men, the Savior born tonight
Gloria, Gloria, lift your voices and sing
Emmanuel has come to us, salvation He will bring
"This will be a sign to you," the angel does proclaim
"A baby wrapped in swaddling cloths, in a manger laid"
Suddenly a multitude of heavenly hosts above
Singing praises to the Lord, declaring His great love
Gloria, Gloria, glory to God on high
Peace on earth, goodwill to men, the Savior born tonight
Gloria, Gloria, lift your voices and sing
Emmanuel has come to us, salvation He will bring
Shepherds hurry to the town, their hearts filled with delight
They find the child as they were told, on that holy night
Gloria, Gloria, glory to God on high
Peace on earth, goodwill to men, the Savior born tonight
Gloria, Gloria, lift your voices and sing
Emmanuel has come to us, salvation He will bring
Gloria, Gloria, glory to God on high
Peace on earth, goodwill to men, the Savior born tonight
