We Three Kings

The angel Gabriel from heaven

came, his wings as drifted

snow, his eyes as flame.

From God on high the angel said to

Mary,

most highly favoured lady,

"Gloria."

"Fear

not, for you shall bear a holy

Child. By him shall we to

God be reconciled.

His name shall be Emmanuel, the

long-foretold

most highly favoured lady,

Gloria."

Then said to Mary humbly bowed

her head, "To me be as it pleases

God," she said, "or

so shall please and magnify His

holy

name, most highly favoured

lady,

Gloria." Of the Emmanuel that

Christ was born in

Bethlehem upon that

Christmas morn, and

Christian folk throughout the world will

ever

say,

most highly favoured

lady,

Gloria.
