O Come, O Come, Emmanuel

  1. 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.
  2. O come, O come, thou Lord of might,
    who to thy tribes, on Sinai’s height,
    in ancient times didst give the law
    in cloud and majesty and awe.
    Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
    shall come to thee, O Israel.
  3. O come, thou rod of Jesse, free
    thine own from Satan’s tyranny;
    from depths of hell thy people save,
    and give them vict’ry o’er the grave.
    Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
    shall come to thee, O Israel.
  4. O come, thou Dayspring from on high,
    and cheer us by thy drawing nigh;
    disperse the gloomy clouds of night,
    and death’s dark shadows put to flight.
    Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
    shall come to thee, O Israel.
  5. O come, thou 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! Emmanuel
    shall come to thee, O Israel.
