| 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 the angelic hosts proclaim Christ is born in Bethlehem Hark the herald angels sing Glory to the new born King Christ by highest heaven adored Christ the everlasting Lord Late in time Behold Him come Offspring of the Virgins's womb Veiled in flesh The Godhead see Hail the incarnate Deity Pleased on men with us to dwell Jesus our Emmanuel Hark the herald angels sing Glory to the new born King Hail the heaven 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 we no more may die Born to raise us from the earth Born to give us second birth Hark the herald angels sing Glory to the new born King |
