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 the angelic hosts proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem

Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace
Hail the Son of Righteousness
Light and Life to all He brings
Risen with healing in His wings

Mild he lay 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

Away in a manger no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head

The stars in the sky looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay

Be near me Lord Jesus I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever, and love me I pray

Bless all the dear children in thy tender care
And fit us for heaven, to live with Thee there

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'r the plains
And the mountains in reply
echoeing their joyous strains

Glo-ria, Glo-ria,

Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing
Come adore on bended knees
Christ the Lord the newborn King

Glo-ria, Glo-ria,

Oh come all, ye faithful
Joyful, and triumphant
Come all, to Bethlehem
Come and behold Him

Oh come let us adore Him
Oh come let us adore Him
Oh come let us adore Him

Christ the Lord

Oh come let us adore Him
Oh come let us adore Him
Oh come let us adore Him

Christ the Lord

Joy to the world, the Lord is come
Let earth receive her king
Let every heart prepare him room

And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing

He rules the world with truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness

and wonders of His love
and wonders of His love

and wonders, yes wonders
and wonders of His love
