Psallos - The Angels' Moment in the Sun (1:5-14) Lyrics

Heav'nly beings, angels are gleaming glory
Stories are told of golden deeds they've done
But to which of the angels did he ever call a son?

Christ ranks higher
Winds, flames of fire, choirs singing
And bringing praise, they serve the Son
You can add 'em all together
He is better than the sum

Jesus Christ is better than the angels
He is better than best of the heavenly hosts
At the most they are lesser than the greater
He is better than the angels, and it's not even close

Ever living, ever existing, King of history
The Maker and the Final Word
Step aside all you angels, let your anthems be heard

Angels, they may be on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
But the songs they sing are songs of Christ
Praising Him who reigns supreme

"Gloria in excelsis Deo!"

Jesus Christ is better than the angels
He is better than best of the heavenly hosts
At the most they are lesser than the greater
He is better than the angels.

Jesus Christ is better than the angels,
Go ahead and compare them - you'll see what I mean.
Not the least but so much lesser than the Savior

For to which of the angels did the Lord ever say
"Sit at my right hand" - the best seat -
"Till I place your foes beneath your feet"
He is better than the best of the heavenly hosts
And it's not even close
