BYB commented: So far, no takers on Adeste Fideles. Those are, of course, the Latin words to "O Come All Ye Faithful", which everyone I know assumes to be a medieval hymn, since it was originally written in Latin.

I think most of us old Latin hammerers understood that. Your question, though, was when it was written. I knew it was fairly recent, but I had no idea exactly when it was composed, or by whom. I vaguely remember reading about it somewhere ... somewhen.
