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