O Come All Ye Faithful Songtext / Lyric

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.



See how the shepherds

Summoned to His cradle,

Leaving their flocks, draw nigh to gaze!

We, too, will thither

Bend our hearts' oblations.






Lo, star-led chieftains,

Magi, Christ adoring,

Offer Him incense, gold and myrrh;

We to the Christ-child

Bring our hearts' oblations



Child, for us sinners,

Poor and in the manger,

Fain we embrace Thee with love and awe;

Who would not love Thee,

Loving us so dearly?



Sing, choirs of angels,

Sing in exultation,

O sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!

"Glory to God,

In the highest!"



Yea, Lord, we greet Thee,

Born this happy morning,

Jesus, to Thee be all glory given;

Word of the Father,

Now in flesh appearing!
