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!"
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 th'incarnate Deity
Pleased with us in flesh to dwell
Jesus, our Immanuel
Hark! the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn 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 newborn King"
"The newborn King"
