Hark the Herald (Sing Out Loud)

by The Spirituals

VERSE 1

(high voices)

Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the new-born 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"
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the new-born king"

Christ by highest heaven adored
Christ the everlasting Lord
Late in time behold Him come
Offspring of the Favoured one
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail the incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with man to dwell Jesus, our
Emmanuel oh-oh

Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the new-born king"

VERSE 3 (TRIO)

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 lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth
Oh-Oh Hark! The herald angels sing

Glory to the newborn King
The new born King
The new born King

​

The new born King / La la la la la la la… / Hark the
Herald….
