Gabriel's Message

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 For know a blessed mother thou shalt be All generations laud and honor thee Thy Son shall be Emanuel, by seers foretold Most highly favored lady, gloria" Then gently 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 Of her, Emanuel, the Christ was born In Bethlehem all on a Christmas morn And everyone throughout the world forever said "Most highly favored lady, gloria"
