O come, O come, Emmanuel,
And ransom captive Israel,
That mourns in lonely exile here

Until the Son of God appear.

Refrain


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 victory over the grave.


Refrain

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.


Refrain
