Our Top 5 Favorite Versions of "Angels from the Realms of Glory"
"Angels from the Realms of Glory" is a Christmas carol with lyrics written by Scottish poet James Montgomery. It was first published in 1816 under the title "Nativity." The song celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ and the announcement of his birth by angels to the shepherds, as described in the Bible in the Gospel of Luke.
The song is often sung to the tune of "Regent Square," which was composed by Henry Smart in 1867. The combination of Montgomery's lyrics and Smart's music has made "Angels from the Realms of Glory" a popular choice for Christmas celebrations in churches and other settings.
The lyrics of the song reflect on the joyous occasion of Christ's birth and call on the angels, shepherds, and all creation to join in praising God for the gift of his son. The song captures the sense of awe and wonder surrounding the nativity story and has become a beloved part of the Christmas music tradition.
