1. Hark! The Herald Angels Sing,
“Glory to the newborn King”,
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled:
Joyful all ye nations, rise,
Join the triumph of the skies,
With th’angelic host proclaim,
“Christ is born in Bethelehem”.
Hark! the herald angels sing,
“Glory to the newborn King”.
2. Christ by highest heaven adored,
Christ, the everlasting Lord,
Late in time behold Him come,
Offspring of a Virgin’s womb.
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see,
Hail, the Incarnate Deity,
Pleased as man with man to dwell,
Jesus, our Immanuel!
Hark! the herald…
3. Hail, the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hail, the Sun of Righteousness!
Light and life to all he brings,
Risen with healing in His wings.
Mild He lays His glory by,
Born that man no more may die,
Born to raise the sons of earth.
Born to give them second birth.
Hark! the herald…
