Description
SAB Choir and Keyboard. An elegant setting of a German tune. Easy and great for the First Sunday after Christmas when you don't necessarily want a familiar Christmas carol, but the message is the same.

Lyrics
O Hark, what news the angels bring,
Glad tidings of a new-born King,
This is the day, the blessed morn,
The Savior of the world was born.
If Angels sung at Jesus' birth,
Then we have greater cause for mirth,
For it was all for our poor sake
He did our human nature take.
Lo, in that manger where he lies
Our faith discerns a sacrifice
And by his birth we all may see
A pattern of humility.
Stupendous Babe! my God and King,
Thy praises I will ever sing,
In joyful accents raise my voice,
And in my praise of God rejoice.
