Meaning & Inspiration
This worship version of the Christmas carol keeps the familiar refrain "O come, let us adore Him" and repeats it across the song. The first verse invites the faithful to Bethlehem with "Come and behold Him" and "Born the King of Angels," while a second verse calls the choirs of angels and the citizens of Heaven to sing "Glory to God, glory in the Highest."
Later sections move from the invitation to the reason for it. The lines "For He alone is worthy" and "Christ the Lord" are repeated, and a closing declaration of glory is addressed directly to Christ. The final lines return to the call to adore and end on "For He is worthy."
The wording echoes the Gospel of Luke, where angels announce the birth of a Savior who is Christ the Lord and praise God in the highest. The song reads as a congregational call to worship for Christmas gatherings, with the carol text carrying the story and the added lines carrying the response.
