Carol: O Come, All Ye Faithful
Please stand, if you are able, to sing
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 …
See how the shepherds, Summoned to his Cradle,
Leaving their flocks, draw nigh with lowly fear;
We too will thither, Bend our joyful footsteps
O come, let us adore Him …
Sing, choirs of angels, Sing in exultation,
Sing, all ye citizens of heav’n above;
Glory to God, In the highest:
O come, let us adore Him …
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 …
See how the shepherds, Summoned to his Cradle,
Leaving their flocks, draw nigh with lowly fear;
We too will thither, Bend our joyful footsteps
O come, let us adore Him …
Sing, choirs of angels, Sing in exultation,
Sing, all ye citizens of heav’n above;
Glory to God, In the highest:
O come, let us adore Him …
Please remain standing for the final blessing
