C. Wesley, 1707—08.

HARK, how all the welkin rings! ‘Glory to the King of kings, Peace on earth and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled.’

2 Joyful, all ye nations, rise, Join the triumph of the skies; Universal nature say ‘Christ the Lord is horn to-day.’

3 Christ, by highest heaven adored, Christ, the everlasting Lord, Late in time behold him come Offspring of a Virgin’s womb.

4 Veiled in flesh, the Godhead see! Hail the incarnate Deity! Pleased as man with men to appear Jesus, our Emmanuel here!
