Angels from the realms of glory, Wing your flight over all the earth; Ye who sang creation's story Now proclaim the Messiah's birth. Gloria... In Excelsis Day O. Shepherds, in the field abiding, Watching over your flocks by night, God with us is now residing;1 Yonder shines the infant light Gloria... In Excelsis Day O. Sages, leave your contemplations, Brighter visions beam afar; Seek the great Desire of nations; Ye have seen His natal star Gloria... In Excelsis Day O.
