O Come, O Come Emmanuel

Oh, come, oh, 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, O come, thou day-spring bright! Pour on our souls thy healing light; Dispel the long night’s lingering gloom, And pierce the shadows of the tomb. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel! Oh, come, desire of nations, bind In one the hearts of all mankind; Bid every strife and quarrel cease, And fill the world with Heaven's peace. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel! Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel! Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel!
