Title English: Hark! The Herald angels sing
Lyrics: Charles Wesley (letra) // Felix Mendelssohn (música)

Spanish

Oíd un son en alta esfera:
“¡En los cielos gloria a Dios,
al mortal, paz en la tierra!”
canta la celeste voz

Con los cielos alabemos,
al eterno Rey cantemos,
a Jesús, a nuestro bien,
con el coro de Belén.
Canta la celeste voz:
“¡En los cielos gloria a Dios!”

El Señor de los señores,
el Ungido celestial,
por salvar a pecadores
toma forma corporal

¡Gloria al Verbo encarnado,
en humanidad velado!
¡Gloria a nuestro Redentor
a Jesús, Rey y Señor!
Canta la celeste voz:
“¡En los cielos gloria a Dios!”

Príncipe de Paz eterna,
¡Gloria a Ti, Señor Jesús!
Con tu vida y con tu muerte
nos ofreces vida y luz

Has tu majestad dejado,
a buscarnos te has dignado;
para darnos el vivir
en la cruz fuiste a morir.
Canta la celeste voz:
“¡En los cielos gloria a Dios!”

English

Stanza 1. Hark! the herald angels sing,
“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 th’angelic hosts proclaim,
“Christ is born in Bethlehem!”

Refrain:
Hark! the herald angels sing,
“Glory to the newborn King”

Stanza 2. Christ, by highest heaven adored,
Christ, the everlasting Lord,
late in time behold him come,
offspring of the Virgin’s womb:
veiled in flesh the Godhead see;
hail th’incarnate Deity,
pleased with us in flesh to dwell,
Jesus, our Immanuel. [Refrain]

Stanza 3. Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hail the Sun of Righteousness!
Light and life to all he brings,
risen with healing in his wings.
Mild he lays his glory by,
born that we no more may die,
born to raise us from the earth,
born to give us second birth. [Refrain]
