The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church ‎#84

84. O Come, All Ye Faithful

1 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!

2 O see how the shepherds,
Summoned to His cradle,
Now leaving their flocks, draw nigh with lowly fear;
We, too, will thither
Bend our joyful footsteps; [Refrain]

3 O sing, choirs of angels;
Sing in exultation,
O sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!
Glory to God
In the highest! [Refrain]

4 Amen, Lord, we greet Thee,
Born this happy morning:
O Jesus, to Thee be glory giv'n;
Word of the Father,
Now in flesh appearing, [Refrain]

Amen.
