Come, all ye
faithful,
Joyful and triumphant,
O hasten, O hasten to Bethlehem;
See in a manger
The Monarch of angels,
O come and let us worship,
Christ the Lord.
God of God
eternal,
Light from light proceeding,
He deigns in the Virgin's womb to lie;
Very God of very God,
Begotten, not created,
O come, &c.
Sing alleluia,
All ye choirs of angels;
Sing, all ye citizens of heaven above,
Glory to God
In the highest.
O come, &c.
Yea, Lord, we
greet Thee,
Born this happy morning;
To Thee, O Jesus, be glory given;
True Word of the Father,
In our flesh appearing,
O come, &c.
