-<poem>
-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 Emmanuel, by seers foretold,
-most highly favored lady," 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 favored lady, Gloria!
-Of her, Emmanuel, the Christ, was born
-in Bethlehem, all on a Christmas morn,
-and Christian folk throughout the world will ever say
-"Most highly favored lady," Gloria!
