1Hail, all hail the joyful morn:

Tell it forth from earth to heaven,

That to us a child is born,

That to us a Son is given.

2Angels, bending from the sky,

Chanted, at the wondrous birth,

"Glory be to God on high,

Peace--good-will to man on earth."

3Join we then our feeble lays

To the chorus of the sky;
