Sufjan Stevens - Angels We Have Heard On High lyrics

Angels we have heard on high Singing for the earth's attention And the mountains in reply So much noise for my affection Shepherds, why this jubilee Have you seen a flying saucer? And what the gladsome tidings be Is it power and wealth you're after? Gloria, it speaks of pure devotion Gloria, the counting and commotion Gloria, I cannot stand to listen Gloria, it takes from my ambition Gloria Come to Bethlehem and see The Son of God inside a manger Come, adore on bended knee Where dreams become your greatest danger Gloria, it puts your heart in motion Gloria, like some romantic notion Gloria, it gives a great petition Gloria, and takes from your ambition Gloria Gloria Gloria Gloria Gloria Gloria
