| 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. True God of true God,
Light of light eternal,
Lo, He abhors not the virgin's womb;
Son of the Father,
Begotten not created:
Refrain. O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.
3. Sing, choirs of angels,
Sing in exultation,
Sing, all ye citizens of heaven above,
"Glory to God,
Glory in the highest":
Refrain. O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.
4. See how the shepherds, summoned to His cradle, Leaving their flocks, draw nigh to gaze; We too will thither bend our joyful footsteps;
Refrain. O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.
5. Lo! star led chieftains, Magi, Christ adoring, Offer Him incense, gold, and myrrh; We to the Christ Child bring our hearts’ oblations.
Refrain. O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.
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?
Refrain. O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.
7. Yea, Lord, we greet Thee,
Born this happy morning,
Jesus, 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.
