Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
Meredith Andrews performs a classic Christmas hymn, "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing," which celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. The song proclaims the angels' announcement of the newborn King, emphasizing themes of peace, reconciliation between God and humanity, and the incarnation of Christ. It reflects on Jesus as the everlasting Lord, the Prince of Peace, and the one who brings light, life, and healing. The lyrics highlight the purpose of His birth: to save humanity from death and offer a second birth. This rendition stays true to the traditional carol, focusing on the joy and theological significance of Christmas.
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 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 Him come
Offspring of the Virgin's womb
Veiled 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
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
