O COME, O COME, EMMANUEL
Author(s): Singing Sam
Songbook: Christmas Miscellaneous
KeyWords: Christmas,

O come, O come, Emmanuel, and ransom captive
Israel, that mourns in lonely
Exile here, until the Son of God appear

Chorus:
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall
Come to thee, O Israel

O come, 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

O come, Thou Day-spring, come and cheer our spirits by
Thine advent here; dispers the gloomy
Clouds of night, and death's dark shadows
Put to flight

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

O come, O come, Thou Lord of might, Who once from
Sinai's flaming height didst give the
Trembling tribes thy law, in cloud and majesty, and awe
