O COME ALL YE FAITHFUL
Words and music attributed
to John F. Wade
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.
True God of true God,
Light from Light Eternal,
lo, he shuns not the
Virgin's womb;
Son of the Father,
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;
O sing, all ye
citizens of heaven above!
Glory to God, all
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.
See how the shepherds,
summoned to his cradle,
leaving their flocks,
draw nigh to gaze;
we too will thither
bend our joyful footsteps;
O come let us adore
him, O come let us adore him,
O come let us adore
him, Christ the Lord.
Child, for us sinners
poor and in the manger,
we would embrace thee
with love and awe.
Who would not love
thee, loving us so dearly?
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 all
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.
