O Come, O Come, Emmanuel |
|
And ransom captive Israel |
|
That mourns in lonely exile here |
|
Until the Son of God appears |
|
Rejoice! Rejoice! Oh Israel |
|
To Thee Shall come Emmanuel |
|
O come, O Dayspring, bright and cheer |
|
Our spirits by thine advent here |
|
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night |
|
And death's dark shadows put to flight |
|
Rejoice! Rejoice! Oh Israel |
|
To Thee Shall come Emmanuel |
|
O come, Thou Wisdom from on high, |
|
Who orders all things far and nigh |
|
To us the path of knowledge show, |
|
And cause us in her ways to go. |
|
Rejoice! Rejoice! Oh Israel |
|
To Thee Shall come Emmanuel |
|
O come, Desire of nations, bind |
|
All peoples in one heart and mind; |
|
Bid envy strife and quarrels cease, |
|
Fill the whole world with Heaven's peace |
|
Rejoice! Rejoice! Oh Israel |
|
To Thee Shall come Emmanuel |
