ALL SING
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!
Sing, choirs of angels,
Sing in exultation,
Sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!
Glory to God
In the highest:
Refrain
SUNG BY THE CHOIRS
Child for us sinners
Poor and in the manger,
We would embrace thee, with love and awe;
Who would not love thee,
Loving us so dearly?
Refrain
ALL STAND AND SING
Yea, Lord, we greet thee,
Born this happy morning;
Jesus, to thee be glory giv’n!
Word of the Father,
Now in flesh appearing:
Refrain
