Hark! The herald angels sing,
Glory to the new born 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 new born King.
Christ by highest heav'n 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 Diety.
Pleased as man with men to appear
Jesus, our Emmanuel, is here.
Hail th' incarnate Diety
Glory to the new born King.
Hail the heav'n born Prince of Peace,
Hail the Sun of righteousness;
Light and life to all He brings,
Ris'n with healing on His wings.
Mild, He lays His glory by
Born that man no more to 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.
