by Traditional
Angels We Have Heard on High was written by Traditional. The carol’s text is based on and paraphrases the older French song “Les Anges dans nos campagnes,” first published in the early 19th century, while the English version most familiar today was created by James Chadwick in the 1860s. “Angels We Have Heard on High” has since become a standard Christmas carol in the English‑speaking world, widely included in hymnals and seasonal recordings and especially recognizable for its extended “Gloria in excelsis Deo” refrain.
