Oh come, all ye faithful,
  Adoring, triumphant,
Oh joyful, oh joyful, to Bethlehem repair;
  Behold in a manger
  The monarch of angels;
With glad alleluias his glory declare.

  God eternal of God,
  Light eternal of Light,
'Twas thine in thy womb, blessed Maiden, to bear;
  True God uncreated,
  Not made but begotten;
With glad alleluias his glory declare.

  Ye chorus of angels,
  From heaven descending,
Oh haste ye, oh haste ye, our triumph to share;
  Singing, 'Glory to God
  In the highest for ever';
With glad alleluias his glory declare.

  All glory for ever
  To thee, blessed Jesus,
Born to rescue the fallen from woe and despair;
  True Word of the Father,
  Eternal, incarnate;
With glad alleluias his glory declare.
