According to A Dictionary of Hymnology[1], this translation is the most popular rendering of the anonymous hymn "Adeste fideles". It first appeared in Murray's Hymnal, 1852, with an alternative second line reading "Joyfully triumphant", and has since passed into a great number of collections in the UK and other English-speaking countries.
