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 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 him come,
Offspring of
the favored one.
Veil`d in flesh,
the Godhead see;
Hail, th`incarnate
Deity:
Pleased, as man,
with men to dwell,
Jesus, our Emmanuel!
Hark! the herald
angels sing,
Glory to the
newborn King!
Hail! the heav`n-born
Prince of peace!
Hail! the Son
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 sone of earth,
Born to give
them second birth.
Hark! the herald
angels sing,
Glory to the
newborn King!
