 1. Oh, come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant,
Oh, come ye, Oh, come ye, to Bethlehem!
Born upon earth behold the King of Angels!

Chorus:
Oh, come let us adore Him,
Oh, come, let us adore Him,
Oh, come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!

2. He, God of God, and Light of Light begotten,
Comes to the world as a maiden's Child:
He, Very God, begotten not created: Chorus.

3. Sing, Choir of Angels; raise your hymn of triumph;
Sing, ye that stand around the Throne on high;
Glory to God, all glory in the highest! Chorus.

4. Thou who didst deign to be born for us this morning,
Glory to Thee, O Jesu Lord!
Word of the Eternal Father, now incarnate! Chorus.
