1 Strike your harps, ye saints in glory,
Shout aloud the wondrous story,
Christ the Savior born;
Born, His people to deliver,
Born, to reign our king forever;
Tell it by the crystal river,
Christ the Savior born;
Tell it by the crystal river,
Christ the Savior born.
2 Clasp your hands, ye floods of ocean,
Sing, ye hills, with pure devotion,
Christ the Savior born;
Wake, O earth! the song repeating,
Wake! thy own Messiah greeting;
Hearts with holy rapture beating,
Hail a Savior born;
Hearts with holy rapture beating,
Hail a Savior born.
3 Hark! the mighty anthem ringing,
Multitudes of angels singing,
Christ the Savior born;
Opened now the gates of glory,
Man redeemed, O wondrous story!
Glory in the highest, glory!
Christ the Savior born;
Glory in the highest, glory!
Christ the Savior born.
