“O Come All Ye Faithful” is presented here as a lead sheet in G major. The page includes the melody on a single treble staff, chord symbols above the notes, and multiple verses of lyrics under the melody. Instead of a written-out piano accompaniment, this version gives the basic tune, harmony, and text so it can be used for singing, simple accompaniment, arranging, or improvisation.

Measures 1–4 present the opening phrase, “O come, all ye faithful.” The melody begins with a strong, direct shape, while the chord symbols stay close to G, D, and C. The stacked lyrics allow the same melody to carry several verses.

Measures 5–8 continue the verse and move toward the refrain. The harmony adds E minor, A, and D, giving the lead sheet more motion while still keeping the page practical and easy to follow.

Measures 9–17 present the familiar refrain, “O come, let us adore Him.” The melody repeats the same worshipful phrase several times, while the chords move through G, A minor, D, A7, C, and D before returning to G for the final “Christ the Lord.” This gives the ending a clear and strong cadence.

Interesting fact: “O Come All Ye Faithful” is often credited to John Francis Wade, and its Latin title is “Adeste Fideles.” The hymn has become one of the most widely sung Christmas carols in English-speaking churches, especially because the repeated “O come, let us adore Him” refrain works naturally for congregational singing.
