Lyrics: A Tribute of Carols

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.

 

O little town of Bethlehem,

how still we see thee lie.

Above thy deep and dream-less sleep the silent stars go by.

Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting Light;

The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.

 

Deck the halls with boughs of holly,

Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

'Tis the season to be jolly,

Fa, la, la, la, la, a, la, la, la

Don we now our gay apparel,

Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Troll the ancient Yuletide carol,

Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

 

Silent night, Holy night,

All is calm, All is bright,

Round your Virgin, Mother and Child,

Holy Infant so tender and mild,

Sleep in Heavenly peace,

Sleep in Heavenly peace. 

 

Joy to the world, the Lord is come; 

Let Earth receive her King.

Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room,

And heav'n and nature sing,

And heav'n and nature sing,

And heav'n and heav'n and nature sing.
