Lyrics: 

Adeste fideles, laeti triumphantes; venite, venite in Bethlehem; natum videte regem angelorum. venite, adoremus Dominum.

Deum de Deo, lumen ad lumine, gestant puellae viscera, Deum verum, genitum non factum. venite, adoremus Dominum.

en grege relicto, humiles ad cunas, vocati pastores appropiant. et nos ovanti gradu festinemus, venite, adoremus Dominum.

stella duce, Magi Christum adorantes, aurum, thus, et myrrham dant munera. Jesu infanti corda praebeamus: venite, adoremus Dominum.

aeterni Parentis splendorem aeternum velatum sub carne videbimus, Deum infantem, pannis involutem, venite, adoremus Dominum.

pro nobis egenum et foeno cubantem piis foveamus amplexibus; sic nos amantem quis non redamaret? venite, adoremus Dominum.

cantet nunc 'Io' chorus angelorum; cantet nunc aula caelestium, Gloria in excelsis Deo. venite, adoremus Dominum.

ergo qui natus die hodierna. Jesu, tibi sit gloria, Patris aeterni Verbum caro factum. Venite, adoremus Dominum.

Translated Lyrics: 

Oh, come, all ye faithful, Joyful and triumphant! Oh, come ye, oh, come ye to Bethlehem; Come and behold Him Born the King of Angels: Oh, come, let us adore Him, Oh, come, let us adore Him, Oh, come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.

Highest, Most Holy, Light of Light Eternal, Born of a virgin, A mortal He comes; Son of the Father Now in flesh appearing! Oh, come, let us adore Him, Oh, come, let us adore Him, Oh, come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.

Sing, choirs of angels, Sing in exultation, Sing, all ye citizens of Heaven above! Glory to God In the highest: Oh, come, let us adore Him, Oh, come, let us adore Him, Oh, come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.

Yea, Lord, we greet thee, Born this happy morning; Jesus, to thee be glory given! Word of the Father, Now in flesh appearing! Oh, come, let us adore Him, Oh, come, let us adore Him, Oh, come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.
