Song details

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 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. 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, Adonai, 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.
