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 comes forth from the Virgin's womb.
Our very God, begotten, not created, [Refrain]
3 Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation,
Sing, all ye citizens of heav'n above!
"Glory to God, 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]
