English text
- What sound upon the midnight air o'er Bethlehem is ringing?
- The echo of an anthem fair
- In answer to an ageless prayer;
- The angels joyful tidings bear,
- And cannot cease from singing:
- Gloria in excelsis Deo,
- And on the earth be peace, goodwill toward men.
- What light hath rent the midnight sky, from realms celestial springing?
- O'er Judah mighty legions fly,
- Ablaze in glory from on high;
- Creation trembles at their cry,
- And cannot cease from singing:
- Gloria in excelsis Deo,
- And on the earth be peace, goodwill toward men.
- Sing gloria, ye men and angels mingling!
- Abide in peace,
- Goodwill increase,
- And never cease from singing:
- Gloria in excelsis Deo!
