Hark The skies with music sound

hark! the skies with music sound,
heav’nly glory beams around;
christ is born! the angels sing
glory to the newborn king.

peace is come, goodwill appears;
sinners wipe away your tears;
christ for you in flesh today
humbly in the manger lay.

shepherds, tending flocks by night,
heard the song, and saw the light;
took their reeds, and softest strains
echoed through the happy plains.

mortals, hail the glorious king!
richest incense cheerful bring;
praise and love immanuel’s name,
and his boundless grace proclaim.

glory, praise, and blessing be,
lord, our savior, unto thee;
thee let heaven and earth adore,
god o’er all forevermore.
