O 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 Thou Dayspring from on high And cheer us by Thy drawing nigh 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 Wisdom from on high And order all things far and nigh To us the path of knowledge show And cause us in her way to go Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee O Israel
