Angels from the Realms of Glory

Angels from the realms of glory, Wing your flight o’er all the earth;
Ye who sang cre- ation’s story Now proclaim Mes- siah’s birth.

1. Angels from the realms of glory,
Wing your flight o’er all the earth;
Ye who sang creation’s story
Now proclaim Messiah’s birth.
Gloria In Excelsis Deo
Gloria In Excelsis Deo

2. Shepherds, in the field abiding,
Watching o’er your flocks by night,
God with us is now residing;
Yonder shines the infant light:
Gloria In Excelsis Deo
Gloria In Excelsis Deo

3. Sages, leave your contemplations,
Brighter visions beam afar;
Seek the great Desire of nations;
Ye have seen His natal star.
Gloria In Excelsis Deo

4. Saints, before the altar bending,
Watching long in hope and fear;
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In His temple shall appear.
Gloria In Excelsis Deo

5. Sinners, wrung with true repentance,
Doomed for guilt to endless pains,
Justice now revokes the sentence,
Mercy calls you; break your chains.
Gloria In Excelsis Deo

6. Though an Infant now we view Him,
He shall fill His Father’s throne,
Gather all the nations to Him;
Every knee shall then bow down:
Gloria In Excelsis Deo
Gloria In Excelsis Deo

7. All creation, join in praising
God, the Father, Spirit, Son,
Evermore your voices raising
To th’eternal Three in One.
