36. Christ's Nativity

1 Hark! the herald-angels sing,
Glory to the new-born King;
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!

2 Sons of Zion, too, arise,
Join the triumph of the skies;
And with angels loud proclaim,
“Christ was born in Bethlehem!”

3 Veiled in flesh the Godhead see!
Hail the incarnate Deity!
Mild he lays his glory by,
Born that we no more may die!

4 Glory to the new-born King,
Let us now the anthem sing;
Peace on earth, and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!
