Light most blissful! Fire divine!
Fill, oh! fill these hearts of Thine!
On our inmost being s.h.i.+ne.
If in Thee it be not wrought All in men is simply naught, Nothing pure in deed and thought.
On the faithful who confide, Solely in Thyself as guide, Let Thy sevenfold gifts abide.
Grant them virtue's full increase, Grant them safe and sweet release, Grant them everlasting peace!
_ADESTE, FIDELES_
_A Christmas Hymn_
Adeste, fideles, Laeti, triumphantes, Venite, venite in Bethlehem: Natum videte Regem Angelorum:
_Chorus_
Venite adoremus, Venite adoremus, Venite adoremus Dominum.
Deum de Deo, Lumen de lumine, Gestant puellae viscera: Deum verum, Genitum non factum:
Cantet nunc Io Chorus Angelorum, Cantet nunc aula caelestium: Gloria in Excelsis Deo:
Ergo qui natus Die hodierna Iesu, tibi sit gloria: Patris aeterni Verb.u.m caro factum.
Translation
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.
G.o.d of G.o.d, Light of Light, Lo! He abhors not the Virgin's womb; Very G.o.d, Begotten, not created; O come, let us adore Him, etc.
Sing choirs of Angels, Sing in exultation, Sing, all ye citizens of Heav'n above: "Glory to G.o.d In the highest"; O come, let us adore Him, etc.
Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, Born this happy morning; Jesu, to Thee be glory given; Word of the Father, Now in flesh appearing; O come, let us adore Him, etc.
_DE NATIVITATE DOMINI_[9]
Puer natus in Bethlehem Unde gaudet Ierusalem
Hic iacet in praesepio, Qui regnat sine termino.
Cognovit bos et asinus Quod puer erat Dominus.
Reges de Saba veniunt, Aurum, thus, myrrham offerunt.
Intrantes domum invicem Novum salutant Principem.
De matre natus virgine Sine virile semine;
Sine serpentis vulnere De nostro venit sanguine;
In carne n.o.bis similis, Peccato sed dissimilis;
Ut redderet nos homines Deo et sibi similes
In hoc natali gaudio Benedicamus Domino.
Laudetur sancta Trinitas; Deo dicamus gratias.
[Footnote 9: This may be sung to the tune of Sweet Hour of Prayer.]
