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 th'angelic host proclaim, "Christ is born in Bethlehem!"

Refrain

Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King."

Verse 2

Christ, by highest heaven adored; Christ, the everlasting Lord! In the manger born a king, While adoring angels sing, "Peace on earth, to men good will;" Bid the trembling soul be still, Christ on earth has come to dwell, Jesus, our Immanuel!

Refrain

Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King."

Verse 3

Hail, the heaven-born 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.

Refrain

Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King."
