Judah’s mount­ains heard the ec­ho
Of the an­gel cho­rus sing,
As they float­ed, down­ward float­ed,
Earthward on their shin­ing wings.

Refrain

Glory to God in the high­est,
The val­leys re-ec­ho the strain;
Glory to God in the high­est,
Peace on earth, good will to men.

Judah’s ri­vers lent their mur­mur
To the an­gels’ song of love;
As they float­ed, down­ward float­ed,
Like a ho­ly sac­red dove.

Refrain

Judah’s shep­herds saw the glo­ry
Heard the voic­es sing­ing sweet,
Heard the glad an­gel­ic sto­ry,
Falling pros­trate at their feet.
