Approach, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant,
O come ye, O come ye, to Bethlehem!
The New-born there is King and Lord of angels:
O come with adoration, O come with adoration,
O come with adoration, and worship the Lord!

True God of God, true Light of Light,
Born of a virgin, very Man, –
Yea, very God, begotten, and not made.
O come with adoration, O come with adoration,
O come with adoration, and worship the Lord!

Sing Hallelujah! Glorious choir of angels:
Ye courts of heaven, be filled with song:
Glory to God, all glory in the highest.
O come with adoration, O come with adoration,
O come with adoration, and worship the Lord!

To Thee, who on this joyous day wast born, –
To Thee be glory, Jesu Lord,
Word of the Eternal Father, Word Incarnate!
O come with adoration, O come with adoration,
O come with adoration, and worship the Lord!
Hallelujah!
