Hark the tones of church bells chiming
Peace and Joy throughout all the lands
Then hear voice angelic rhyming
And mellow sounds of Christmas bands.

[All herald now the new King’s birth]

Let all nations be known as brother
Together here on God’s great earth
Mary was the dear Lord’s Mother
Virgin Mother of countless worth.

[All herald now the new King’s birth]

Far in the east there shone a star
And the dear Lord was born to earth
Wise men travelled from afar
Brought with them Frankincense and myrrh.

[All herald now the new King’s birth]

Christmastime is for joy and mirth
Of happiness and deepest love
To celebrate the good Lord’s birth
Sent down to us by God above.

[All herald now the new child’s birth
We give praise to God: A king is born!]
AMEN!.
