Product Description
This is an innovative "R'n'B" treatment of the Christmas carol, "Hark the Herald Angels Sing." With a soloist featured throughout, you will need someone who is comfortable singing in a soulful, contemporary black gospel style. There is 'vamp' section of sorts toward the end of the piece, but all the 'ad-libs' by the soloist are written out.
Lyrics
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 host proclaim
"Christ is born in Bethlehem!"
Hark! the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King!"
Christ, by highest heav'n adored,
hrist, the everlasting Lord!
Late in time behold Him come,
Offspring of the Virgin's womb;
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see;
Hail the incarnate Deity,
Pleased as man with men to dwell
Jesus, our Emmanuel!
Hark! the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King!"
Glory to the newborn King...
We sing Glory!...
We sing Glory to our King!...
We sing Glory, Glory to our King!...
We sing Glory to our King!
Hail, the heav'nborn Prince of Peace!
Hail, the Sun of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Ris'n with healing in His wings.
Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth
Hark! the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King!"
Glory to the newborn King! ...
e sing Glory! Glory to our King! ...
We sing Glory to the newborn King!
