Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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!

[Verse 2]

"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!

[Verse 3]

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!

[Verse 4]

Of her, Emmanuel, the Christ was born

In Bethlehem, all on a Christmas morn

And Christian folk throughout the world will ever say

"Most highly favored lady", Gloria!
