Alleluia, verbum caro factum est by Antoine Busnois — Lyrics
Verbum caro factum est
Et habitavit in nobis
et vidimus gloriam ejus [or cuius gloriam vidimus]
gloriam quasi unigeniti a Patre
plenum gratiae et veritatis.
Verse for Christmas Matins
Omnia per ipsum facta sunt et sine ipso factum est nihil. (Liber Usualis & Furmanik)

About Alleluia, verbum caro factum est
This setting of the famous Christmas antiphon Verbum caro factum est, by Antoine Busnois, is ideal for Christmas Matins. The text, drawn from the opening of the Gospel of John, describes the Incarnation, proclaiming that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. Busnois masterfully sets the solemn Latin text for SATB choir, capturing the profound theological significance of the season. The music reflects the grandeur and mystery of this central Christian event, making it a powerful addition to any Christmas service.
