Hark! The Herald Angels Sing Lyrics

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!

Christ, by highest heav’n adored
Christ, the everlasting Lord!
Late in time behold Him come
Offspring of a virgin’s womb
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail th’ incarnate Deity
Pleased with us in flesh to dwell
Jesus, our Emmanuel

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 we no more may die
Born to raise us from the earth
Born to give us second birth

Hark! The herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King!

Hark! The Herald Angels Sing began as a poem by Charles Wesley in 1739, one of the founders of Methodism. The soaring tune we sing today came a century later: it was adapted from a chorus by Felix Mendelssohn, written in 1840, and matched to Wesley's words by William Hayman Cummings in 1855.

Its triumphant refrain makes it a thrilling carol to sing out, and our Love to Sing choir keeps every line clear and full of joy. It's a favorite for carol services, school nativities and Christmas concerts.
