O come, all ye faithful






1. O come, all ye faithful,
joyful and triumphant,
O come ye, O come ye, to Bethlehem.
Come and behold Him,
born the King of angels;
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.

2. True God of true God,
Light from Light Eternal,
Lo, He shuns not the Virgin’s womb;
Son of the Father,
begotten, not created;
O come, let us adore Him...

3. Sing, choirs of angels,
sing in exultation;
O sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!
Glory to God,
all glory in the highest;
O come, let us adore Him...

4. See how the shepherds,
summoned to His cradle,
Leaving their flocks, draw nigh to gaze;
We too will thither
bend our joyful footsteps;
O come, let us adore Him...

5. Lo! star led chieftains,
Magi, Christ adoring,
Offer Him incense, gold, and myrrh;
We to the Christ Child
bring our hearts’ oblations.
O come, let us adore Him...

6. Child, for us sinners
poor and in the manger,
We would embrace Thee, with love and awe;
Who would not love Thee,
loving us so dearly?
O come, let us adore Him...

7. Yea, Lord, we greet Thee,
born this happy morning;
Jesus, to Thee be glory given;
Word of the Father,
now in flesh appearing.
O come, let us adore Him...
