O come, O come, Emmanuel,
And ransom captive Israel,
That mourns in lonely exile here,
Until the Son of God appear:

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee,
O Israel.

O come, 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:

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 shadow put to flight:

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee,
O Israel.

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:

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee,
O Israel.

O come, O come, Thou Lord of Might,
Who to the tribes of Sinai's height
In ancient times did give Thy Law,
In cloud and majesty and awe:

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee,
O Israel.
