Lyics

Hark! from the world on high

Glory to God!

Now swells along the sky

Glory to God!

Songs, like sweet notes of praise,

Pour forth in rapturous lays,

As all the voices raise

Glory to God!



Hear how the angels sing

Glory to God!

Through all the heavens ring

Glory to God!

Now let each heart on earth

Sing of the Savior's birth,

Telling his matchless worth,

Glory to God!
