about

A carol originally written in Latin in the 17th Century.
Translated into English by Catholic Priest Frederick Oakeley in the early 19th century. The original composer of the tune is unknown, though it's been attributed to various individuals, such as John Reading, his son George Frideric Handel, Christoph Willibald Gluck, and some others besides. However it was first published in 1751 in John Francis Wade's collection "Cantus Diversi".

lyrics

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.

O sing, choirs of Angels, sing in exultation,
Sing all ye citizens of Heaven above.
Glory to God in the Highest;
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.

All Hail! Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning,
O Jesus! for evermore be Thy name adored.
Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing;
O come, let us adore Thee,
O come, let us adore Thee,
O come, let us adore Thee, Christ the Lord.
