Adeste fideles.
Oh come, all ye faithful,
Joyful and triumphant,
Oh come ye, oh come ye to Bethlehem;
Come and behold him
Born the King of angels;
Oh 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 ;
Oh come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.

Sing, choirs of angels.
Sing in exultation.

'Glory to God
In the highest';
Oh come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.

Born this happy morning;

Word of the Father,
Now in flesh appearing:
Oh come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.
