Verse 4



Refrain​
O come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant
Oh 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.

God of God, light of light,
Lo, he abhors not the Virgin's womb;
Very God, begotten, not created:

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 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.
​
Yea, Lord, we greet thee,  Born this happy morning;
Jesus, to thee be glory given!
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.
