Текст песни Hark! the herald angels sing (adapted W. H. Cummings) - Sir David Willcocks , Choir of King's College, Cambridge , The Philip Jones Brass Ensemble , Ian Hare

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

Joyful, all ye nations, rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With the angelic host proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"

Hark! The herald angels sing:
"Glory to the new-born King"

Christ, by highest heaven adored
Christ, the everlasting Lord
Late in time, behold him come
Offspring of the favoured one

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 new-born King"

Hail the heaven-born
Prince of peace
Hail the Son of Righteousness
Light and life to all he brings
Risen with healing in his wings

Mild he lays his glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the son of earth
Born to give them second birth

Hark! The herald angels sing:
"Glory to the new-born King!"
