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, o come, thou lord of might
Who to thy tribes on Sinai's height
In ancient times did'st give the law
In cloud, and majesty and awe

Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, o Israel

O come, thou rod of Jesse, free
Thine own from satan's tyranny;
From depths of hell thy people save
And give them vict'ry o'er the grave
Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, o Israel

O come, thou key of David, come
And open wide our heav'nly 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, thou day spring
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

What child is this, who laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?

This this is Christ the king
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste haste to bring Him laud
The babe the son of Mary
So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh
Come, peasant, king to own Him
The king of kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him

This, this is Christ the king
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste haste to bring Him laud
The babe the son of Mary
