Angels From The Realms Of Glory
G
Angels from the realms of glory,
C G/B D G
wing your flight o'er all the earth;
G D/F♯
ye who sang creation's story,
Em A D
now proclaim Messiah's birth.
Refrain
D/F#
Come and worship,
G/B
come and worship,
C D G
worship Christ the newborn King!
G
Shepherds in the field abiding,
C G/B D G
watching o'er your flocks by night,
G D/F♯
God with man is now residing,
Em A D
yonder shines the infant light;
G
Sages, leave your contemplations,
C G/B D G
Brighter visions beam afar;
G D/F♯
Seek the great desire of nations,
Em A D
Ye have seen His natal star;
G
Saints, before the altar bending,
C G/B D G
Watching long in hope and fear;
G D/F♯
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
Em A D
In His temple shall appear.
