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 sing, choirs of angels
Sing in exultation
O sing, all ye citizens of heaven above
Glory to God
Glory in the highest
O come, let us adore Him
O come, let us adore Him
O come, let us adore Him
Christ the Lord
O Lord, we greet Thee
Born this happy morning
O Jesus, for evermore be Thy name adored
Word of the Father
Now in flesh appearing
O come, let us adore Him
O come, let us adore Him
O come, let us adore Him
Christ the Lord
O come, let us adore Him
Christ the Lord
"O Come All Ye Faithful" is a classic Christmas carol that has been sung for centuries, and Red Rocks Worship has given it a fresh and modern twist. This song is not only a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ but also an invitation for all believers to come and adore Him.
The lyrics of the song capture the essence of the Christmas story, inviting all faithful believers to come and witness the birth of the King of Angels in Bethlehem. It calls for joyful and triumphant worship, acknowledging Jesus as the King and Savior. The song creates a sense of anticipation and excitement, urging listeners to come and behold the glory of God in the flesh.
One scripture verse that relates to the theme of this song is found in Luke 2:15-16, which says, "When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, 'Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.' So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger." Just like the shepherds in this passage, the song encourages us to come and behold Jesus, just as they did on that holy night.
The song also references the heavenly choir of angels singing in exultation, which reminds us of the angelic proclamation in Luke 2:13-14, "Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.'" This scripture verse depicts the joy and worship that surrounded the birth of Jesus, and the song echoes that sentiment as it calls for us to join in singing and praising God.
Another scripture verse that relates to the theme of the song is found in Matthew 2:2, which says, "Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him." This verse is a reference to the wise men who came from the East to worship Jesus. The song echoes their desire to come and adore the newborn King, acknowledging Him as the long-awaited Messiah.
The inspiration behind "O Come All Ye Faithful" is rooted in the deep reverence and awe that the Christmas story evokes. It reminds us of the importance of coming together as a community of believers to worship and adore Jesus, just as the shepherds, angels, and wise men did on that first Christmas.
