Tunes: | O come, Immanuel, 444 |
Meter: | 8.8.8.8.8.8. Iambic |
O COME, O come Immanuel,
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear.
2 O come, O come, thou Lord of might,
Who to thy tribes, on Sinai?s height,
In ancient times didst give the law
In cloud and majesty and awe:
3 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:
4 O come, thou dayspring, come and cheer
Our spirits by thine advent here;
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death?s dark shadows put to flight:
5 O come, thou key of David, come
And open wide our heavenly Home;
Make safe the way that leads on high
And close the path to misery.
Chorus
Rejoice, Rejoice!
Immanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear.
2 O come, O come, thou Lord of might,
Who to thy tribes, on Sinai?s height,
In ancient times didst give the law
In cloud and majesty and awe:
3 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:
4 O come, thou dayspring, come and cheer
Our spirits by thine advent here;
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death?s dark shadows put to flight:
5 O come, thou key of David, come
And open wide our heavenly Home;
Make safe the way that leads on high
And close the path to misery.
Chorus
Rejoice, Rejoice!
Immanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.
