O Come, O Come, Emmanuel

O come, O come, Emmanuel - And ransom captive Israel That mourns in lonely exile here - Until the Son of God appear Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel - Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free - Thine own from Satan’s tyranny From depths of Hell Thy people save And give them victory o’er the grave Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel - Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, Thou Day-Spring, come and cheer Our spirits by Thine advent here Disperse the gloomy clouds of night And death’s dark shadows put to flight. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel - Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, Thou Key of David, come, And open wide our heavenly home; Make safe the way that leads on high, And close the path to misery. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel - Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, O come, Thou Lord of might, Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai’s height, In ancient times did’st give the Law, In cloud, and majesty and awe Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
