Product Description
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. This also includes a part for choice of flute, violin or cello to play along - all are included in purchase. cdboss@cvalley.net

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 its Christmas Rose, its 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 heavnly 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!
