- As it fell upon a night
In the winter weather,
Angels bright in starry height
Began to sing together. - Shepherds sleeping on the plain
Woke to see the glory,
All amazed they stood and gazed
And heard the angels’ story. - Unto you a child is born
In a manger lowly,
Humble, He, yet born to be
The King of Love most holy. - Happy angels from afar,
Cease your singing never!
In excelsis gloria!
Forever and forever.
