MySongbooksThe Australian Hymn Book
The Australian Hymn Book was published in 1977, and was the culmination of almost ten years' work by an ecumenical committee, chaired by A. Harold Wood, intent on producing a new, contemporary and inclusive hymn book that could be used in worship by the varied Christian congregations across Australia.

[Refrain]
O come, let us adore him,
O come, let us adore him,
O come, let us adore him,
Christ the Lord!
[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:
[2]
True God of true God,
Light of Light eternal,
lo, he abhors not the Virgin's womb;
Son of the Father, begotten, not created:
[3]
See how the shepherds
summoned to his cradle,
leaving their flocks, draw nigh with holy fear;
we too will thither bend our joyful footsteps:
[4]
Lo, starled chieftains,
wisemen, Christ adoring,
offer him incense, gold and myrrh;
we to the Christ child bring our hearts' oblations:
[5]
Child, for us sinners
poor and in the manger,
fain we embrace thee with love and awe;
who would not love thee, loving us so dearly?
[6]
Sing, choirs of angels,
sing in exultation,
sing all ye citizens of heaven above,
'Glory to God, glory in the highest':
[7]
Yea, Lord we greet thee,
born this happy morning,
Jesus, to thee be glory given;
Word of the Father now in flesh appearing:
