Hark! The Herald Angels Sing |
Hark, how all the welkin rings, |
«Glory to the King of kings; |
Peace on earth, and mercy mild, |
God and sinners reconciled!» |
Joyful, all ye nations, rise, |
Join the triumph of the skies; |
Universal nature say, |
«Christ the Lord is born to-day!» |
Christ, by highest Heaven ador’d, |
Christ, the everlasting Lord: |
Late in time behold him come, |
Offspring of a Virgin’s womb! |
Veiled in flesh, the Godhead see, |
Hail the incarnate deity! |
Pleased as man with men to appear, |
Jesus! |
Our Immanuel here! |
Hail, the heavenly Prince of Peace! |
Hail, the Sun 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. |
Come, Desire of nations, come, |
Fix in us thy humble home; |
Rise, the woman’s conquering seed, |
Bruise in us the serpent’s head. |
Now display thy saving power, |
Ruined nature now restore; |
Now in mystic union join |
Thine to ours, and ours to thine. |
Adam’s likeness, Lord, efface; |
Stamp Thy image in its place. |
Second Adam from above, |
Reinstate us in thy love. |
Let us Thee, though lost, regain, |
Thee, the life, the inner Man: |
O! |
to all thyself impart, |
Form’d in each believing heart. |
