Sing, all in heaven at Jesu’s birth

Verse 1
Sing all in heaven at Jesus’ birth
Glory to God, and peace on earth,
Jehovah’s heart in Christ is seen
Pure mercy, and good will to men.

Verse 2
Praise Him extol’d above all height,
Who doth in worthless worms delight,
God reconcil’d, in Christ confess
Your present and eternal Peace.

Verse 3
From Jesus manifest below
Rivers of pure salvation flow,
And deluge man’s distinguish’d race
With everlasting streams of grace.

Verse 4
Sing every soul of Adam’s line
The fav’rite attribute Divine,
Ascribing with the hosts above
All glory to the God of Love.

Hymnal/Album: Originally titled: “'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will towards men.’—[Luke 2,] v. 14.” Wesley originally published this hymn in his 1762 hymnal "Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures, Vol. 2" (Bristol: Farley, 1762). He later revised and expanded it in his unpublished 1766 manuscript “MS Luke.” This manuscript is part of the collection of the Methodist Archive and Research Centre in The John Rylands Library, The University of Manchester (accession number MA 1977/575, Charles Wesley Notebooks Box 3). Accessed through the website of The Center for Studies in the Wesleyan Tradition, Duke Divinity School. Published in The Poetical Works of John and Charles Wesley, Collected and Arranged by G. Osborn, Vol. 11 (London: Wesleyan-Methodist Conference Office, 1871), page 117.
