Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
"Glory to the newborn King
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!"
Joyful, all ye nations rise;
Join the triumph of the skies;
With angelic host proclaim
Hark! the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn 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 sons of earth,
Born to give them second birth
Hark! the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King"
We bring glory to Your name
We bring glory to Your name
Joyful, all ye nations rise;
Join the triumph of the skies;
With angelic host proclaim
"Christ is born in Bethlehem!"
Hark! the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"
We bring glory to Your name
We bring glory to Your name
We bring glory to Your name
“Hark! The herald angels sing” is a Christmas hymn that captures the essence of the birth of Jesus Christ. The opening line, “Hark! the herald angels sing,” tells the listeners to pay attention to the good news being announced by the angels. The hymn continues with the announcement of the birth of the newborn King, and encourages all nations to join in the celebration of the event. The second verse hails Jesus Christ as the Prince of Peace and the Son of Righteousness who gives light and life to all people, and is the only one who can bring reconciliation between God and sinners.
The hymn concludes with the repeated phrase “We bring glory to your name,” which serves as a reminder of the true purpose of Christmas. It is not solely about celebrating the birth of a miraculous baby, but also about bringing glory and honor to the name of Jesus Christ, who came to save humanity.

HEBREWS 2V9-18 Thank you Jesus, thank you Father, and thank you Holy Spirit!!!
9 But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone (many sons/daughters - not everyone).
10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation through sufferings.
11 For both He who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all from one Father; for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren,
12 saying,
“I WILL PROCLAIM YOUR NAME TO MY BRETHREN,
IN THE MIDST OF THE CONGREGATION I WILL SING YOUR PRAISE.”
13 And again,
“I WILL PUT MY TRUST IN HIM.”
And again,
“BEHOLD, I AND THE CHILDREN WHOM GOD HAS GIVEN ME.”
14 Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,
15 and might free those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives.
16 For assuredly He does not give help to angels, but He gives help to the descendant of Abraham.
17 Therefore, He had to be made like His brethren in all things, so that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.
18 For since He Himself was tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are tempted.
