12342. Hark The Angels' Song

1 Hark the angels’ song,
Hark the angels’ song,
Ringing thro’ the portals on high;
Look, each star so bright,
Trembles in delight,
As they hear the heav’nly cry.

Refrain:
"Glory to God in the highest!
Glory to God in the highest!"
Good news of peace unto all I bring,
Yonder is born a king,
"Glory to God in the highest!
Glory to God in the highest!"
Glory to God, glory to God,
Glory to God on high!

2 Hark the angels’ song,
Hark the angels’ song,
Song that never mortals have heard—
Rise, O sleeping earth,
Hail thy Savior’s birth,
Bow in praise before the Lord. [Refrain]

3 Hark the angels’ song,
Hark the angels’ song,
Sweeter words no mortal could frame;
Song in Heaven taught,
All with rapture fraught,
Sounding forth the glorious praise. [Refrain]
