O Come O Come Emmanuel

The favorite O Come, O Come Emmanuel carol was originally written in Latin text in the 12th Century.

O come, O come, Emmanuel
And  ransom captive Israel
That mourns in longely exile here
Until the Son of God appear
Rejoice! Rejoice!  Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
 
 O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free
Thine own from Satan's tyranny
From depts 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 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 Thy tribes, on Sinai's height,
In ancient times did'st give the Law,
In a cloud, and majesty and awe.
Rejoice!  Rejoice!  Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
