Over the hills they heard Him coming

Riding the wind like a distant storm

Louder and louder they could hear it

Sounds of a thousand voices strong

Such a celebration filled up the heavens

With all the angels singing as one

There was such a celebration filled with elation

The Lord of all the ages had come

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Suddenly flashed a streak of lightning

Lighting the sky like the midday sun

Followed a host of angels singing

Glory to God, the King has come

Such a celebration filled up the heavens

With all the angels singing as one

There was such a celebration filled with elation

The Lord of all the ages had come

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Gloria in excelsis Deo

And then such a celebration filled up the heavens

With all the angels singing as one

There was such a celebration filled with elation

The Lord of all the ages had come

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Gloria in excelsis Deo

Gloria in excelsis Deo

There was such a celebration filled with elation

The Lord of all the ages had come

There was such a celebration filled with elation

The Lord of all the ages had come

There was such a celebration filled with elation

There was such a celebration filled with elation

There was such a celebration (gloria in excelsis Deo)

There was such a celebration (gloria in excelsis Deo)
