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. See how the shepherds,
Summoned to His cradle,
Leaving their flocks,
Draw nigh with lowly fear;
We too will thither
Bend our joyful footsteps; [Refrain]

4. Lo! star led chieftains,
Magi, Christ adoring,
Offer Him incense,
Gold, and myrrh;
We to the Christ Child
Bring our hearts’ oblations. [Refrain]

5. 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? [Refrain]

6. Sing, choirs of angels,
Sing in exultation;
Sing, all ye citizens
Of heaven above!
Glory to God, all
Glory in the highest; [Refrain]

7. Yea, Lord, we greet Thee,
Born this happy morning;
Jesu, to Thee be glory given;
Word of the Father,
Now in flesh appearing.

Refrain
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.
