Ready for Friday's Concert?

Following are the lyrics to our chosen carol, voted in by the class last week:

O COME, ALL YE FAITHFUL

1. 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;

Refrain

O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.

2. True God of true God, Light from Light Eternal,
Lo, He shuns not the Virgin’s womb;
Son of the Father, begotten, not created;

3. Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation;
O sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!
Glory to God, all glory in the highest;

4. Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning;
Jesus, to Thee be glory given;
Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing.

We have just two days to get our act together--so please don't be absent but "O Come" and practise our singing before the concert! After the concert in the Child Minding Room on the ground floor, there is a potluck reception back on our fourth floor. Remember to bring a big dish to share!
