The Angel Gabriel

Gloria
Gloria
Gloria

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 favored lady"
Gloria

"For known a blessed mother thou shalt be
All generations laud and honor thee
Thy Son shall be Emmanuel, by seers foretold
Most highly favored 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 favored 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 favored lady"
Gloria
Gloria
