Angels from the Realms of Glory Songtext
von The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square

Shepherds, in the fields abiding,
Watching o′er your flocks by night,
God with man is now residing,

[Chorus:]
Gloria in excelsis deo 1
Gloria in excelsis deo


Sages, leave your contemplations,
Brighter visions beam afar;
Seek the great desire of nations,
Ye have seen His natal star;

[Chorus]

Saints before the altar bending,
Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In His temple shall appear:

Though an Infant now we view Him,
He shall fill His Father's throne,
Gather all the nations to Him;
Every knee shall then bow down:


[Chorus]
