O come, O come, Emmanuel, And ransom captive Israel, That mourns in lonely exile here, Until the Son of God appears. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel. 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. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel. O come, desire of nations, By all peoples in one heart combine. Bid in thee strife and quarrel cease, Fill the whole world with heaven's peace. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel. O come, O come, Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel.
