O come, O come, Emmanuel And ransom captive Israel That mourns in lonely exile here Until the Son of God appear Rejoice! Rejoice! O Israel To thee shall come Emmanuel O come, Thou Day-Spring 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 Rejoice! Rejoice! O Israel To thee shall come Emmanuel O 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! O Israel To thee shall come Emmanuel
