Song Lyrics: Angels We Have Heard on High (Joyful, Joyful) by CeCe Winans
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o’er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echo back their joyous strains
Come to Bethlehem and see
Him Whose birth the angels sing
Come adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord the newborn King
Gloria in excelsis Deo!
Gloria in excelsis Deo!
Joyful, joyful we adore Thee
God of glory, Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee
Opening to the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us with the light of day
Gloria in excelsis Deo!
Gloria in excelsis Deo!
In excelsis Deo!
Light of the world
Fill us with the light of day
Jesus, light of the world
Fill us with the light of day
Light of the world
Fill us with the light of day
Jesus, light of the world
Fill us with the light of day
Gloria!
In excelsis Deo
