Tune: | ADESTE FIDELES |
1 Come hither, ye faithful, triumphantly sing:
Come see in the manger the angels' dread King!
To Bethlehem hasten, with joyful accord;
O come ye, come hither, to worship the Lord!
2 True Son of the Father, He comes from the skies:
To be born of a Virgin He doth not despise:
To Bethlehem hasten, with joyful accord;
O come ye, come hither, to worship the Lord!
3 Hark, hark to the angels, all singing in heaven,
"To God in the highest all glory be given!"
To Bethlehem hasten with joyful accord;
O come ye, come hither, to worship the Lord!
4 To Thee, then, O Jesus, this day of Thy birth,
Be glory and honor through heaven and earth.
True Godhead incarnate, omnipotent Word!
O come, let us hasten to worship the Lord!
