O Come, O Come Emmanuel

O come, o come Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lowly exile here
Until the Son of God appears
O come thy dayspring, 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 wisdom from on high
And order all things far and wide
To us the path of knowledge show
And cause us in her ways to go
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
shall come to thee, o Israel
O come desire of nations, bind
in one the hearts of all mankind
bid thou our sad divisions cease
And be thyself our King of Peace
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
shall come to thee, o Israel
O come, o come Emmanuel
O come, o come Emmanuel
