W:1. Hark! the herald angels sing, -
W:"Glory to the newborn King!
W:Peace on earth, and mercy mild,
W:God and sinners reconciled."
W:Joyful, all ye nations, rise,
W:Join the triumph of the skies;
W:With th'angelic host proclaim,
W:"Christ is born in Bethlehem."
W:Hark! the herald angels sing,
W:"Glory to the newborn King!"
W:
W:2. Christ, by highest heav'n adored:
W:Christ, the everlasting Lord;
W:Late in time behold him come,
W:Offspring of the favored one.
W:Veil'd in flesh, the Godhead see;
W:Hail, th'incarnate Deity:
W:Pleased, as man, with men to dwell,
W:Jesus, our Emmanuel!
W:Hark! the herald angels sing,
W:"Glory to the newborn King!"
W:
W:3. Hail! the heav'n-born Prince of peace!
W:Hail! the Son of Righteousness!
W:Light and life to all he brings,
W:Risen with healing in his wings
W:Mild he lays his glory by,
W:Born that man no more may die:
W:Born to raise the sone of earth,
W:Born to give them second birth.
W:Hark! the herald angels sing,
W:"Glory to the newborn King!"
