Angels We Have Heard on High (Kalimba Tab)

Angels We Have Heard on High is a classic Christmas carol that recounts the biblical story of the angels announcing the birth of Jesus to shepherds in Bethlehem. The song captures the excitement and wonder of the shepherds as they hear the heavenly choir proclaiming the news of Christ's arrival. It invites listeners to join in the joyful chorus of angels singing "Gloria in excelsis Deo" (Glory to God in the highest). The song celebrates the miracle of Jesus' birth and the hope and salvation he brings to the world. It is often sung with enthusiasm during Christmas celebrations, reminding believers of the divine message of peace and goodwill heralded by the angels on that holy night.
