Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

What a glorious Christmas Carol!  Do you remember when Charlie Brown and the gang sang it at the end of the Charlie Brown Christmas Special?  So sweet.  If by some strange reason you have never seen the show, by all means watch it!  It is the best.

Lord Jesus, just as the angels heralded Your birth over 2,000 years ago, we herald You in our hearts.  We worship You, Lord Jesus.  We cannot praise and worship You enough for being born!  God Almighty born in a manger.  Alleluia!  Amen! 

Lyrics

  1. 1. 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!

  2. [Chorus]

    Hark! the herald angels sing

    Glory to the newborn King!

  3. 2. 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 man no more may die;

    Born to raise the sons of earth,

    Born to give them second birth.

Text: Charles Wesley, 1707–1788

Music: Felix Mendelssohn, 1809–1847
