Glory to the new born 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, th'incarnate deity!
Pleased as Man with men to dwell,
Jesus, our Emmanuel!
Hark, the herald angels sing,
Glory to the newborn King!

Hail, the heav'n born Prince of Peace!
Hail, the Sun 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!
Hark, the herald angels sing,
Glory to the new born King!

Come, Desire of Nations, come!
Fix in us Thy humble home!
Rise, the woman's conqu'ring Seed,
Bruise in us the serpent's head!
Sing we, then, with angels, sing,
Glory to the newborn King!
Glory in the highest heav'n,
Peace on earth, and sins forgiv'n!
Hark, the herald angels sing,
Glory to the new born King!
