Lyrics
Hark! the herald-angels sing:
鈥淕lory to the new-born King!
peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!鈥
Joyful, all ye nations rise!
Join the triumph of the skies!
With the angelic host proclaim:
鈥淐hrist is born in Bethlehem!鈥
Hark! the herald-angels sing:
Glory to the new-born King!
Christ, by highest heaven adored,
Christ, the everlasting Lord:
late in time behold him come,
offspring of a Virgin鈥檚 womb.
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see!
Hail the incarnate Deity,
pleased as man with man to dwell;
Jesus, our Emmanuel!
Hark! the herald-angels sing:
Glory to the new-born King!
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-angels sing:
Glory to the new-born King!
