IN BETHLEHEM AFAR
Gloria in excelsis Deo,
?Twas the hymn the angels sang many years ago, To a little babe on a bed of straw,
In and humble stable in Bethlehem afar. CHORUS:
Gloria, Gloria in excelsis Deo,
Gloria, Gloria in excelsis Deo.
Shepherds from the mountain high. Saw the star so bright.
And they followed it to see.
Their Lord that Christmas night.
UNDER THE FORM OF BREAD AND WINE
Under the form of bread and wine. Under the form of bread and wine. Thou art present. Lord Divine.
Under the form of bread and wine. Thou art present. Lord Divine.
Under the form of bread and wine.
CHORUS:
Sweet Sacrament, we Thee adore; Sweet Sacrament, we Thee adore;
O, make us love thee, more and more. Sweet Sacrament, we Thee adore;
O, make us love thee, more and more. Sweet Sacrament, we Thee adore.
Celestial chorus from heaven above. Celestial chorus from heaven above. Bow before the Lord they love. Celestial chorus from heaven above. Bow before the Lord they love. Celestial chorus from heaven above.
