Translation by Matthew Parker, Archbishop (1504 - 1575)
O come in one to praise the Lord
Language: English after the Latin
O come in one to praise the Lord And him recount our stay and health. All hearty joys let us record To this strong rock, our Lord of health. His face with praise let us prevent; His facts in sight let us denounce. Join we, I say, in glad assent. Our psalms and hymns let us pronounce.
