A Hymn for Christmas: 'The Angels Sang '

The Angels Sang 7777 + Chorus
See a manger filled with hay,
Where the infant Christ-child lay;
There in oil-lamps flick’ring glow,
God was born on earth below.
And the angels sang, Alleluia!
And the church bells rang, Alleluia!
And all the stars shone bright,
That first Christmas night, Alleluia!


Hear the song the angels sang,
Hear the tune the bells all rang;
Peace on earth, goodwill to men,
Hear them singing it again.
And the angels sang, Alleluia!
And the church bells rang, Alleluia!
And all the stars shone bright,
That first Christmas night, Alleluia!


Glory shining all around,
People bow to heaven’s sound;
Voices sing in harmony,
Jesus came for you and me.
And the angels sang, Alleluia!
And the church bells rang, Alleluia!
And all the stars shone bright,
That first Christmas night, Alleluia!
