          Verses:

      1. Hark! The Herald angels sing,
          “Glory to the new-born King.
          Peace on earth and mercy mild,
          God and sinners reconciled!”
          Joyful, all ye nations rise,
          Joy the triumph of the skies.
          With the angelic host proclaim,
          “Christ is born in Bethlehem!”                        (Refrain)

      2. Christ, by highest Heaven adorned,
          Christ is everlasting Lord,
          Late in time behold Him come,
          Offspring of the favored one.
          Veiled in flesh the God-head see,
          Hail the incarnate deity!
          Pleased as Man with man to dwell;
          Jesus, our Immanuel!                                    (Refrain)

      3. Hail, the heavenly prince of peace!
          Hail, the Son of righteousness!
          Light and life to all He brings,
          Rising with healing in His wings,
          Mild He leaves his throne on high,
          Born that man no more may die
          Born to raise the sons of earth;
          Born to give them second birth.                     (Refrain)
