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
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 mid-day 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
Lord of all the ages had come
Gloria in excelsis deo
Gloria in excelsis deo
