80. Angels from the realms of glory

Refrain

James Montgomery, 1816

Angels from the realms of glory,

Wing your flight o'er all the earth;

Now proclaim Messiah's birth:

Come and worship,

Worship Christ, the newborn King.

Watching o'er your flocks by night;

God with man is now residing,

Yonder shines the infant Light:

Sages, leave your contemplations;

Watching long in hope and fear,

Suddenly the Lord, descending,

In his temple shall appear:
