Hark the Herald Angels Sing
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 angelic hosts proclaim,
“Christ is born in Bethlehem!”
Hark! The Herald angels sing:
“Glory to the newborn King!”
Christ by highest heav’n adored,
Christ, the everlasting Lord.
Late in time behold He come,
Offspring of the 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 angels sing:
“Glory to the newborn King!”
Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace,
Hail the Son of righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Ris’n 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 angels sing:
“Glory to the newborn King!”
