The Angel Gabriel (with LSS) - Måns Zelmerlöw

The angel Gabriel from Heaven came,

His wings as drifted snow, his eyes as flame;

«All hail,"said he, «Thou lowly maiden Mary,

Most hightly 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 hightly favored lady,"Gloria!

Then gentle Mary meekly bowed her head,

«To me be as it pleaseth God,"she said,

«My sould 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 throughout the world will ever say:

«Most hightly favored lady,"Gloria!
