Verse_Lyric: 1
1. City of David, Bethlehem, 

city of hope to the sons of men, 

out of thy darkness shines a star, 

light of all peoples near and far.

Within thy walls on Christmas day, 

in lowly manger Jesus lay.

2. Shepherds of old, whose humble praise

echoes the song that the angels raise,

draw near again this Christmas morn.

Joy to the world, the Lord is born! 

For unto us a Son is giv’n:

the Prince of Peace, the God of heav’n!

Verse_Lyric: 3
3. Glory to God, the angels sing.

Glory to God, our   Lord and King!

Anthems of praise the heavens fill: 

“Peace on the earth, to men good will!"

With joy proclaim to all the earth

our Lord and Savior’s wondrous birth!

Chorus_Lyric: 1
Glory in the highest!
