For unto us is born this day
in the city of David, a Saviour,
which is Christ the Lord, which is Christ the Lord.
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna to the Son of David.

Blessed is he, blessed is he,
blessed is he that cometh in the Name, in the Name of the Lord,
in the Name of the Lord.
Blessed is he that cometh,
blessed is he, is he, is he, is he,
he that cometh in the Name of the Lord.

Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest.

To God on high be glory, to God on high be glory,
to god be glory, to God be glory,
and peace on earth to men;
To God on high be glory, to God on high be glory,
to God, to God on high, to God, to God on high,
to God on high, to God on high, to God on high,
to God be glory.

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.

Amen.
