Song Lyrics
[Verse 1] O come, O come, Immanuel, and ransom captive Israel that mourns in lonely exile here until the Son of God appear. [Chorus] Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to you, O Israel. [Verse 2] O come, O Wisdom from on high, who ordered all things mightily; to us the path of knowledge show and teach us in its ways to go. Refrain [Chorus] Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to you, O Israel. [Verse 3] O come, O come, great Lord of might, who to your tribes on Sinai's height in ancient times did give the law in cloud and majesty and awe. Refrain [Chorus] Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to you, O Israel. [Verse 4] O come, O Branch of Jesse's stem, unto your own and rescue them! From depths of hell your people save, and give them victory o'er the grave. [Chorus] Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to you, O Israel. [Verse 5] O come, O Key of David, come and open wide our heavenly home. Make safe for us the heavenward road and bar the way to death's abode. [Chorus] Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to you, O Israel. [Verse 6] O come, O Bright and Morning Star, and bring us comfort from afar! Dispel the shadows of the night and turn our darkness into light. [Chorus] Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to you, O Israel. [Verse 7] O come, O King of nations, bind in one the hearts of all mankind. Bid all our sad divisions cease and be yourself our King of Peace. [Chorus] Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to you, O Israel. [Verse 1] O come, O come, Immanuel, and ransom captive Israel that mourns in lonely exile here until the Son of God appear. [Chorus] Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to you, O Israel. [Verse 2] O come, O Wisdom from on high, who ordered all things mightily; to us the path of knowledge show and teach us in its ways to go. Refrain [Chorus] Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to you, O Israel. [Verse 3] O come, O come, great Lord of might, who to your tribes on Sinai's height in ancient times did give the law in cloud and majesty and awe.
