Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
The snow lay on the ground
The star shone bright
When Christ our Lord was born
On Christmas night.
CHORUS
Venite Venite
Venite Adoremus
Venite Venite
Venite Adoremus
Adoremus Adoremus
Adoremus Dominus
Adoremus Adoremus
Dominus.
VERSE 2
She laid him in a stall
At Bethlehem
The ass and oxen shared
The roof with them.
VERSE 3
Saint Joseph too was by
To lead the child
To guard him and protect
His mother mild.
VERSE 4
The angels hovered round
And sang their song
Venite Adoremus
Dominus.
VERSE 5
And then that manger poor
Became a throne
And he whom Mary bore
Was God the Son.
