Sung by voices clear and high.

Gloria in excelsis Deo.
2 On the plain, the simple shepherds
Watch'd their flocks the long night thro';
From on high they heard the voices,
Sounding thro' the heavenly blue. [Refrain]
3 See, within the manger lowly,
Wide the Christ child spreads His arms.
Raise to Him your joyful voices,
Sing we all Noel, Noel. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: GLORIA
