Do You Know the Song That the Angels Sang?

lyricist: Abner Cobb, 1893
Composer: James Fillmore (1849–1936)

Do you know the song

That the an­gels sang

On that night in the long ago

When the heav­ens ab­ove

With their mu­sic rang

Till it ech­oed in the earth be­low?

All glo­ry in the high­est

Peace on earth

good­will to men

Glory in the high­est

Peace

good­will to men;

Glory in the high­est

Glory in the high­est

Peace on earth

good­will to men.

Do you know the song

That the shep­herds heard

As they watched o’er their flocks by night

When the skies bent down

And their hearts were stirred

By the voic­es of the an­gels bright?

Do you know the sto­ry

That the wise men learn­èd

As they jour­neyed from the east afar

O’er a path­way plain

For there night­ly burn­èd

In their sight a glo­ri­ous guid­ing star?
