The Angels' Song

Author: Joseph K. Wheeler Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10269 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: How bright and grand, how glorious Lyrics: 1 How bright and grand, how glorious, The angels’ joyful song, When Christ, the Lord victorious, From Heav’n to earth came down; They sweetly sang the story Of love to all mankind, Of peace on earth, and glory To God most high, divine. 2 The swelling chorus raises The glad, triumphant song; They harp and sing His praises With hallelujahs long; He comes! He comes with glory! The Christ from Heav’n above, To tell the world the story Of His redeeming love. 3 And ’round His throne so glorious, Chimes in the angel throng; The seraphs shout, victorious! The King of kings is born; Ye people, bow before Him, With songs of one accord, To praise Him, and adore Him— The blessèd Lamb of God. Languages: English Tune Title: FERRARA
