Hark! The Christmas Songs Are Singing Lyrics

1. Hark! The Christmas songs are singing,
And the Christmas bells are ringing;
Wildly their glad message flying,
In excelsis gloria,
In excelsis gloria.

2. Chiefest day in our possessing,
Crowned with Christmas love and blessing,
Shout ye nations, Christ confessing,
In excelsis gloria,
In excelsis gloria.

3. How the glorious news is flying!
Christ, to save a world from dying,
In a lowly manger lying;
In excelsis gloria,
In excelsis gloria.

4. "Peace on earth," the Angels [Chorus]
Loudly sang while hovering o'er us,
This the message that they bore us,
In excelsis gloria,
In excelsis gloria.

5. Oh! The bells so madly pealing;
Tidings of great joy revealing;
Through our hearts their echoes stealing
In excelsis gloria,
In excelsis gloria.

6. Christ now reigns a King forever
Safe in Him - we'll falter never;
Sing His praise for aye and ever!
In excelsis gloria,
In excelsis gloria.
