O come all ye faithful
Joyful and triumphant
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

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

Sing choirs of angels
Sing in exultation
Sing all ye citizens of Heaven above
Glory to God, Glory in the highest

For You alone are worthy
For You alone are worthy
For You alone are worthy
Christ the Lord

We give You all the glory
We give You all the glory
We give You all the glory
Christ the Lord

We'll praise Your Name forever
We'll praise Your Name forever




We'll praise Your Name forever
Christ the Lord
