Hymn 24

Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass.

O come all ye faithful,
Rejoicing, triumphant,
O come ye, O come ye, to Bethlehem!
See Him an Infant,
Monarch of Angels!
O come then and adore we,
O come then and adore we,
O come then and adore we Christ the Lord!

Godhead of Godhead!
Brightness of Brightness!
Lo, He abhors not the Virgin's womb!
Son of the Father,
Son uncreated!
O come then and adore we.

Lift your Hosannas,
Chorus of Angels!
Let Heaven be filled with the loud acclaim!
To God in the highest
Be glory, be glory!
O come then and adore we.

Jesu, Redeemer!
Bright is Thy Natal Day:
All glory to Thee this glad Day be given!
Word of the Father,
Incarnte to save us!
O come then and adore we.
