Oh, come, oh, come Emmanuel,And ransom captive Israel,That mourns in lonely exile Until the Son of God appear. Rejoice! Rejoice! EmmanuelShall come to you, O Israel!Oh, come, O key of David, come, And open wide our heav'nly home; Make safe the way that leads on high, And close the path to misery. Rejoice! Rejoice! EmmanuelShall come to you, O Israel!Oh, come, oh, come our Lord of might, Who to your tribes on Sinai's height In ancient times gave holy law, In cloud and majesty and awe Rejoice! Rejoice! EmmanuelShall come to you, O Israel!
