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 newborn King. 

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, the incarnate Deity, 
Pleased as man with man to dwell, 
Jesus, our Emmanuel! 

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 man no more may die, 
Born to raise the sons of earth, 
Born to give them second birth.
