Hark! the herald angels sing

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!'

Hail the heav'n-born prince of peace!
Hail the son of righteousness!
Light and life to all he brings
Ris'n 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
Hark! the herald angels sing
'glory to the newborn king!'

'glory to the newborn!'
'glory to the newborn king!'

Come, desire of nations come,
Fix in us thy humble home;
Oh, to all thyself impart,
Formed in each believing heart!
Hark! the herald angels sing
'glory to the newborn king!
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled'

Hark! the herald angels sing
'glory to the newborn king!
