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 angelic host proclaim,
Christ is born in Bethlehem

CHORUS:
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 the Virgin’s womb
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see,
Hail, Incarnate Deity
Pleased as Man with man to dwell,
Jesus, our Emmanuel
(Repeat Chorus)

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;
Ris’n with healing in His wings,
Light and life to all he brings,
Hail, the Sun of Righteousness!
Hail, the heav’n born Prince of Peace
(Repeat Chorus)

¡Salve, Príncipe de Paz! redención traído has,

De tu trono has bajado y la muerte conquistado
para dar al ser mortal nacimiento celestial.

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o’er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.

Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!

Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?

Come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, the newborn King.

Born the king of angels

In the highest glory

Yea, Lord, we greet Thee,
Born this happy morning
Jesus, to Thee be all glory giv’n
Word of the Father,
Now in flesh appearing
(Repeat Chorus)

De gozo triunfantes, henchidos de amor,
y al Rey de los cielos humilde postraremos.

y Dios verdadero que al mundo creó,
Del seno virgíne nació de una madre.
