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;
Refrain:
O come, let us adore him, O come, let us adore him,
O come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord!
2 God of God, Light of Light,
lo, he abhors not the virgin's womb;
Very God, begotten, not created; (Refrain)
3 Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation,
sing, all ye bright hosts of heav'n above:
Glory to God, all glory in the highest; (Refrain)
4 Yea, Lord, we greet thee, born this happy morning;
Jesus, to thee be all glory giv'n;
Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing; (Refrain)
