Hark! the herald angels sing,
Glory to the new -born King!
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled,
rise, join the triumph of the skies.
Radiant, e 'en hosts proclaim,
Christ is born in Bethlehem.
Hark, the herald angels sing,
glory to the new -born King.
Christ by highest heaven adored,
Christ the everlasting Lord,
Made in time, behold Him come,
Offspring of the Virgin's womb.
Veiled in flesh, our God and Seal,
Pleased as man with man to dwell,
Hark! The herald angels sing,
glory to the newborn King.
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.
Raised with healing in His wings,
life and life to all He brings.
Hail the Son of Righteousness,
hail the Heav 'nward Prince of Peace.
Hark! the herald angels sing,
Glory to the newborn King!
