H HARK! the herald Angels sing, Glory to the new-born King; Peace on earth, and mercy mild, God and sinner reconcil’d. Hark! the herald angels sing, Glory to the new-born King. Joyfull all ye nations rise, Join the triumph of the skies, With the angelic host proclaim, Christ is born in Bethlehem. Hark! the herald, &c. Christ by highest Heaven ador’d, Christ the everlasting Lord! Late in time behold Him come, Offspring of a virgin’s womb. Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace! Hail the Sun of Righteousness! Light and life to all He brings, Risen with healing on His wings. Hark! the herald, &c. 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, &c. |
