The Angel Gabriel From Heaven Came - The Choir of King's College, Cambridge/David Willcocks

Written by：Anonymous/Reverend Sabine Baring-Gould

The angel gabriel from heaven came

His wings as drifted snow his eyes as flame

All hail said he thou lowly maiden Mary

Most highly favored lady Gloria

For know a blessed mother thou shalt be

All generations laud and honor thee

Thy son shall be emmanuel by seers foretold

Most highly favored lady Gloria

Then gentle Mary meekly bowed her head

To me be as it pleaseth god she said

My soul shall laud and magnify his holy name

Most highly favored lady Gloria

Of her emmanuel the christ was born

In bethlehem all on a christmas morn

And christian folk through out

The world will ever say

Most highly favored lady Gloria
