[Chorus:] Glad tidings to all men, Glad tidings sing we may, Because the King of Kings, Was born on Christmas Day 2. These tidings shepherds heard While watching o'er their fold; Twas by an Angel unto them That night revealed and told. [Chorus] 3. To whom the Angel spoke, Saying, "Be not afraid;" Be glad, poor silly shepherds -- Why are you so dismayed? [Chorus] 4. "For lo! I bring you tidings Of gladness and of mirth, Which cometh to all people by This holy Infant's birth" [Chorus] 5. Then was there with the Angel An host incontinent Of heavenly bright soldiers, All from the highest sent.3 [Chorus] 6. They praised the Lord our God, And our celestial King: All glory be in Paradise, This heavenly host do sing. [Chorus] 7. And as the Angel told them, So to them did appear; They found the young Child, Jesus Christ With Mary, his mother dear: [Chorus] 8. All glory be to God, That sitteth still on high With praises and with triumph great, And joyful melody. [Chorus] Browse Carols: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
