And she brought forth her firstborn

[juxtaposie]

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

Shepherds in the fields abiding
watching o'er your flocks by night
god with man is now residing
yonder shines the infant light

Sages leave your contemplations
brighter visions beam afar
seek the great desire of nations
ye have seen his natal star

Gloria in excelsis deo!
Venite adoramus, venite adoramus, venite adoramus, Dominum!
