Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
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 the'angelic host proclaim,
Christ is born in Bethlehem.
Hark! the herald angels sing
Glory to the new born King.
VERSE 2
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 Deity!
Pleased as man with man to dwell,
Jesus, our Emmanuel.
Hark! the herald angels sing
Glory to the new born King.
VERSE 3
Hail the heav'nborn Prince of Peace!
Hail the Sun of Righteousness!
Light and life to all he brings,
Risen with healing in his wing;
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.
