ADESTE FIDELES by BERNARD OF CLAIRVAUX

First Line: O COME, ALL YE FAITHFUL
Last Line: CHRIST THE LORD.
Subject(s): CHRISTMAS; NATIVITY, THE;

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;
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.

Sing, choirs of angels,
Sing in exultation,
Sing, all ye citizens of heav'n above:
Glory to God,
In the highest:
O come, etc.
Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning,
Jesus, to Thee be glory giv'n;
Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing:
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.
