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 host proclaim, "Christ is born in Bethlehem." Hark I the herald angels sing, "Glory to the new-born King.
2. 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 as Man with men to dwell, Jesus our Immanuel ! Hark ! the herald angels sing, Glory to the new-born King."
3. Hail,the heavenly 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 new-born King."
