Tune: | ADESTE FIDELES |
1 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.
Refrain:
O come, let us adore him;
O come, let us adore him;
O come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.
2 God of God, Light of Light,
Lo, he abhors not the Virgin’s womb;
Very God, begotten, not created! [Refrain]
3 Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation;
Sing, all ye citizens of heaven above:
Glory to God in the highest! [Refrain]
4 Yea, Lord, we greet thee, born this happy morning;
Jesus, to thee be glory given;
Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing! [Refrain]
Latin:
1 Adeste fideles, laeti, triumphantes,
Veníte, veníte in Bethlehem;
Natum videte Regem angelorun.
Refrain:
Veníte, adoremus, veníte adoremus;
Veníta, adoremus Dóminum.
2 Deum de Deo, lumen de lumine,
Gestant puellae viscera;
Deum verum, genitum, non factum.
