Lyrics

The angel gabriel from heaven came
His wings as drifted snow, his eyes as flame;
'All hail', said he, "thou lowly maiden mary
Most highly favour'd lady
Gloria!

'For known a blessed mother thou shalt be

All generations laud and honour thee
Thy son shall be emmanuel, by seers foretold
Most highly favour'd lady
Gloria!

Then gentle mary meekly bowed her head

'To me be as it pleaseth god', she said
'My soul shall laud and magnify his holy name
Most highly favour'd lady
Gloria!

Of her, emmanuel the christ, was born

In bethlehem, all on a christmas morn
And christian folk throughout the world
Will ever say:
Most highly favour'd lady
Gloria!
