The holy angel of God
Song
The holy angel of God, ; From heaven, that he descended, ; And came to the shepherds, ; And said to them thus: ; ; Now I come to you from heaven, ; And behold, I bring you great good news, ; I bring you great joy, ; Wherewith your hearts shall rejoice. ; ; This day a little child, ; Born of a virgin, is born to you. ; The child is beautiful and so beautiful, ; His joy is delightful. ; ; He has already brought forth his life, ; Which was prepared by God, ; That you also might live with him, ; Rejoice in happiness.
