Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

Gloria,gloria in excelsis Deo

Hark the herald angels singGlory 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 host proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Hark! The herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King!

Gloria,gloria

It came upon the midnight clear
That glorious song of old
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold:
Peace on the earth, goodwill to men
From heavens all gracious King!
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing

Still through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled;
And still their heavenly music floats o′er all the weary world
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing
The blessed angels sing

Gloria in excelsis Deo
