Hark! The herald angels sing,
“Glory to the newborn King;
“Glory to the newborn King;
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!”
God and sinners reconciled!”
Joyful, all ye nations, rise,
Join the triumph of the skies;
Join the triumph of the skies;
With the angelic host proclaim,
“Christ is born in Bethlehem!”
“Christ is born in Bethlehem!”
Refrain:
Hark! The herald angels sing,
“Glory to the newborn King!”
Christ, by highest heav’n adored,
Christ, the everlasting Lord,
Christ, the everlasting Lord,
Late in time behold Him come,
Offspring of a virgin’s womb.
Offspring of a virgin’s womb.
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see,
Hail the incarnate Deity!
Hail the incarnate Deity!
Pleased as Man with man to dwell,
Jesus, our Immanuel!
Jesus, our Immanuel!
[Refrain]
Hail, the heav’n-born Prince of Peace!
Hail, the Sun of Righteousness!
Hail, the Sun of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Ris’n with healing in His wings.
Ris’n with healing in His wings.
Mild He lays His glory by,
Born that man no more may die,
Born that man no more may die,
Born to raise the sons of earth,
Born to give them second birth.
Born to give them second birth.
[Refrain]
