o come, o come, emmanuel

Lyrics

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.
