O Come, O come Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears
CHORUS
Rejoice, Rejoice
Emmanuel
Shall come to thee O Israel
O come, Thou Wisdom from on high
Who orderest all things mightily
To us the path of knowledge show
And teach us in her ways to go
CHORUS
Rejoice, Rejoice
Emmanuel
Shall come to thee O Israel
O come, thou dayspring, come and cheer
Thy Spirits by thine advent here
And drive away the shades of night
And death's dark shadow put to flight
CHORUS
Rejoice, Rejoice
Emmanuel
Shall come to thee O Israel
