Christmas Carol: O Come, All Ye Faithful

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 from Light Eternal, Lo, He shuns not the Virgin's womb; Son of the Father, begotten, not created;

3. Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation; O sing, all Ye citizens of heaven above! Glory to God, all glory in the highest;

4. Yea, Lord, we great Thee, born this happy morning; Jesus, to Thee be glory given; Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing.
