Refrain

Gloria
In excelsis Deo

Verse 1

Sing we the song of Emmanuel
This the Christ who was long foretold
Lo in the shadows of Bethlehem
Promise of dawn now our eyes behold

Chorus 1

God most high in a manger laid
Lift your voices and now proclaim
Great and glorious love has come to us
Join now with the hosts of Heaven

Verse 2

Come we to welcome Emmanuel
King who came with no crown or throne
Helpless He lay the invincible
Maker of Mary now Mary's Son

Chorus 2

O what wisdom to save us all
Shepherds sages before Him fall
Grace and majesty what humility
Come on bended knee adore Him

Verse 3

Go spread the news of Emmanuel
Joy and peace for the weary heart
Lift up your heads for your King has come
Sing for the light overwhelms the dark

Chorus 3

Glory shining for all to see
Hope alive let the gospel ring
God has made a way
He will have the praise
Tell the world His name is Jesus
