This is a medley of 3 Christmas Carols - In the Bleak Mid Winter (English), Gesu Bambino (Italian) and The Snow Lay on the Ground (Irish). Venite Adoremus means O Come Let Us Adore Him, Christ the Lord. I thought it sounded nice to have it in SATB parts - taking turns between the high and low voices and then all together. cdboss@cvalley.net
Lyrics Below:

O Come Let Us Adore Him

(Venite Adoremus, Dominum)

 

(Medley of In the Bleak Midwinter, Gesu Bambino and The Snow Lay on the Ground

 

In the bleak midwinter, frosty winds made moan

Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone

Snow had fallen snow on snow, snow on snow.

In the bleak midwinter, long, long, ago.

 

When blossoms flower amid the snow, upon a winter night

Was born the Child, the Christmas Rose, The King of Love and Light.

 

Venite Adoremus, Dominum

Venite Adoremus, Dominum

 

Twas Mary daughter pure of Holy Anne. That brought into this world the God made man

She laid Him in a stall at Bethlehem. The ass and oxen shared the roof with Him.

 

Again the heart with rapture glows, to greet the Holy night.

That gave the world it’s Christmas Rose, it’s King of Love and Light

 

Venite Adoremus, Dominum

Venite Adoremus, Dominum

 

And thus that manger poor became a throne, for He whom Mary bore was God the Son

O come then let us join the heav’nly host to praise the Father, Son and Holy Ghost

 

O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord

O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord

 

O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord

Venite Adoremus, Dominum!

This version is for SATB voices. It has the original melody with pretty harmonies added. There are solo, duet and complete choir singing the words. Humming and ahhs are used for the solo and duets. The melody is more for an alto range. I have also added additions to each verse that is different than the original with new lyrics and music. It adds a little bit to this iconic song.

Lyrics below:
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see Thee lie
Above Thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by

Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in Thee tonight

 Shepherds watching o’re their flocks
Saw a light star down
Then they noticed that it’s light
Lit up a little town

For Christ is born of Mary
And, gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love

O morning stars, together
Proclaim the Holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on earth

Shepherds followed the bright star
And they were so amazed
People gathered all around
Singing hymns of praise

O Holy Child of Bethlehem
Descend to us, we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born for us today

We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Emmanuel

In a stable was a child
Born for all to see
His mother always by His side
The newborn Prince of peace

O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see Thee lie
Above Thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by.

This version has an optional beginning. I have choir humming for the first three measure. There is a soloist that starts singing after that. The optional part is to not play the piano until half way through the verse. There is accompaniment if you prefer. You can hear on the mp3 how it sounds being a cappella until then. It is for SATB voices. I have also added additions to each verse that is different than the original with new lyrics and music. It adds a little bit to this iconic song.
