Lyrics

O Come, All Ye Faithful / Ye Faithful, Approach YeOriginal Translation - 1852

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:

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

Christ the Lord

God of God, light of light

Lo, he abhors not the Virgin's womb

Very God, begotten, not created:

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

Christ the Lord

Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation

Sing, all ye citizens of Heaven above!

Glory to God, glory in the highest:

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

Christ the Lord

Yea, Lord, we greet thee, born this happy morning

Jesus, to thee be glory given!

Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing!

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

Christ the Lord

Additional Verses

Lo! The flock abandoned, the summoned shepherds

Hurry lowly to the cradle:

May we too make haste with exultant gait!

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

Christ the Lord

A star leading, the Magi, worshipping Christ

Give gifts: gold, frankincense, myrrh

May we proffer our hearts to the infant Christ!

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

Christ the Lord

We shall see the eternal splendour

Of the eternal father, veiled in flesh

The infant God wrapped in cloths

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

Christ the Lord

May we warm him, needy and lying on hay

With our pious embraces:

Who does not love him who loves us thus?

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

Christ the Lord

Sing now choir of angels hymns!

Sing now halls of the heavenly!

Glory to God in the highest!

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

O come, let us adore Him

Christ the Lord
