Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9601 Meter: 11.11 D Lyrics: 1 Whence those sounds symphonious?
Solemn, sweet and rare,
Music most harmonious
Filling all the air:
Hark! ’tis angels singing,
Singing here on earth;
Joyful tidings bringing,
Of the Savior’s birth.
2 In that region yonder,
Where the angels sing,
Bursts of joy and wonder
Make the air to ring:
Praise and adoration
Be to God above:
And to man, salvation,
Object now of love.
3 Now, ye heavens, sing ye;
Earth, break forth and cry;
O ye mountains, ring ye,
With the sound of joy;
For the Lord has done it:
His the victory.
His own arm hath won it:
Israel shall be free. Languages: English Tune Title: ZOVKO
