Glad Tidings (Gabriel)

Tidings

glad tid­ings un­to the world

Tidings that an­gels loud­ly pro­claim

Judea’s plains the mes­sage have heard:

Jesus is come to reign.

Shepherds shout upon the dist­ant plain

Angels send the ec­ho back again;

List to the chor­us

what does it say?

Jesus

Je­sus

Je­sus is born to­day.

Low in a man­ger

low in a stall

See where the in­fant Sav­ior is born

Maker and mon­arch

Sav­ior of all

Know ye this Christ­mas morn!

Let ev­ery heart beat glad and rejoice;

Let every soul be hap­py today.

Join in the chor­us

each

every voice

Spread wide the cheer­ing ray.
