Sweetly singing o'er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echo back their joyous strains.

Why your joyous strains prolong?

Which inspire your heav'nly song? (Refrain)

Him whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord, the newborn King. (Refrain)

With us sing our Savior's birth. (Refrain)
