Lyrics

Verse 1:
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 th' angelic host proclaim
"Christ is born in bethlehem."
Hark! the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn king!

(The following verse is not sung on the boney m version)

Verse 2:
Christ, by highest heav'n adored:
Christ, the everlasting lord;
Late in time behold him come
Offspring of the favored one
Veil'd in flesh, the godhead see;
Hail, th'incarnate deity:
Pleased, as man, with men to dwell
Jesus, our emmanuel!
Hark! the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn king!

Verse 3:
Hail! the heav'n-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
Hark! the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn king!

Repeat verse 1
