The choir of angels
singing with joy for all
heralding a savior
come to one and all
Across the night sky
their harmonies rang out
announcing the birth of Christ,
God, Emmanuel
Just as was foretold
every note, every jot
the fulfillment of all that was
the promise of God
come to earth, a son
With the angels, we now join
their heavenly song our own
the wondrous grace of God
in the coming of the son
just as was promised of old
