Hi,

My computer is really stuffing me around at the moment so I hope this works out OK.

One of my favourite carols...... and I'm sure we had a thread on it last year if you want to do a search.

The (Em)angel (D)Gabri(Em)el from heaven (Bm)came,
His (Em)wings as (D)drifted (Em)snow, his (C)eyes (D)as (Em)flame;
"All (G)hail," said he, "thou lowly maiden (Am)Ma(D)ry,
Most (C)highly favoured (Bm)lady,"
(C)Glo-(Am)o-(Em)o-(Bm)ri(Em)a

I put the chords before the words they should fall on.. hope you can follow............ still can't sing it without remembering how we did it at school..... "Most highly flavoured gravy......."

Slainte

GABRIEL'S MESSAGE

1. 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!

2. "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!

3. 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 favored lady. Gloria!

4. Of her, Emanuel, the Christ was born
In Bethlehem, all on a Christmas morn
And Christian folk throughout the world will ever say:1
"Most highly favored lady," Gloria!
