Let Earth Resound Again
Author: Charles W. Ray Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Why were angels once descending Refrain First Line: "Glory to God in the highest" Lyrics: 1 Why were angels once descending
O’er Judea’s hill and plain?
Why were harps and voices blending
In that grand, seraphic strain?
Refrain:
"Glory to God in the highest,"
Let all earth resound again;
"Glory to God in the highest,
Peace on earth, good will to men."

O’er the Child of lowly birth?
Why were sweetest anthems sending
Their glad echoes over the earth? [Refrain]
3 Love and mercy condescending
Helpless sinners to redeem,
From a fearful doom impending,
Had revealed the King supreme. [Refrain] Used With Tune: CAPULIN Text Sources: Spicy Breezes (Philadelphia: John J. Hood, 1883)
