Gabriel's Message Lyrics - Christmas Songs By Jars Of Clay - Jars Of Clay

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 favoured maid," Gloria! 

"For known a blessed mother thou shalt be, 

All generations laud and honor thee, 

Thy Son shall be Emanuel, 

By seers foretold 

Most highly favoured maid," Gloria! 

Then 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 favoured maid Gloria! 

Of her Emanuel, the Christ was born 

In Bethlehem all on a Christmas morn 

And everyone throughout the world forever saved 

Most highly favoured maid Gloria!
