Latin

Adésté fidéles, Laeti triumphántes,
Veníte, veníte in Bethlehem;
Natum vidéte, Regem angelórum:
Veníte adorémus,
Veníte adorémus,
Veníte adorémus Dóminum.

Deum de Deo, Lumen de lúmine,
Gestant puéllaevíscera;
Deum verum Génitum non factum:
Veníte adorémus,
Veníte adorémus,
Veníte adorémus Dóminum.

Cantet nunc Io Chorus angelórum,
Cantet nunc aula coeléstium
Glória, glória in excélsis Deo
Veníte adorémus,
Veníte adorémus,
Veníte adorémus Dóminum.

Ergo qui natus Die hodiérna,
Jesu tibi sit glória;
Patris aetérni Verbum caro factum:
Veníte adorémus,
Veníte adorémus,
Veníte adorémus Dóminum.

English

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;
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 comes forth from the Virgin's womb.
Son of the Father, 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 heav'n above!
Glory to God, Glory 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 all glory giv'n;
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!
