Me thinks I see a heav'nly host of Angels on the wing,<br>
:Me thinks I see a heav'nly host
Me thinks I hear their cheerful tones So merrily they sing:<br>
::of Angels on the wing,
Let all your fears be banished hence, Glad tidings we proclaim.<br>
:Me thinks I hear their cheerful tones
For there's a Saviour born today, and Jesus is his name.<br>
::So merrily they sing:
 
:Let all your fears be banished hence,
::Glad tidings we proclaim.
:For there's a Saviour born today,
::and Jesus is his name.

Me thinks I see a heav'nly host
of Angels on the wing,
Me thinks I hear their cheerful tones
So merrily they sing:
Let all your fears be banished hence,
Glad tidings we proclaim.
For there's a Saviour born today,
and Jesus is his name.
