We got to sing bluegrass to a lot of Christmas trees a couple weeks ago when we filmed this video of "Angels We Have Heard On High". Anthony filmed this one again and it's so amazing how he is able to use only one camera and capture an entire live song!

►LYRICS - Angels We Have Heard On High
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?
Gloria in excelsis Deo*
See him in a manger laid
Whom the choirs of angels praise
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid
While our hearts in love we raise
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing
Come, adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord, the newborn King
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
(Gloria, gloria, gloria to God in the highest)
In excelsis Deo
In excelsis Deo
*Latin for "Glory to God in the highest"
