Hark, the Herald Angels Sing Songtext
von Mahalia Jackson

Hark! The herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn king
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinner reconciled
Joyful, all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the sky
With angelic host proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Hark! The herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn king
Christ by highest heaven adored
Christ, the everlasting Lord
Come, desire of nations, come
Fix in us thy humble home
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see


Hail the incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with men to dwell
Jesus, our Immanuel
Hark! The Herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn king
Hail the heaven born prince of peace
Hail the sun of righteousness
Light and life to all He bring
Risen with healing in His wing
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
Hark! The Herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn king
