VERSE 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!
VERSE 2
God of God, Light of Light;
lo, he abhors not the virgin’s womb;
very God, begotten not created
REFRAIN
VERSE 3
Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation,
sing, all ye citizens of heav’n above;
glory to God, all glory in the highest;
REFRAIN
VERSE 4
Yea, Lord, we greet thee, born this happy morning;
Jesus, to thee be all glory giv’n;
Word of the Father, late in flesh appearing;
REFRAIN
