Veni, Veni Emmanuel

O come, O come, Emmanuel

And ransom captive Israel

That mourns in lonely exile here

Until the Son of God appear

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel

Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, O come, O King of the nations Come, Redeemer of all

That Thou may save Thy family

From the guilt of all their sins

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 shadows put to flight

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, Thou Rod of Jesse

Free thine own from Satan's tyranny

From depths of hell Thy people save

And grant them victory o'er the grave

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel

Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, O come, Adonai Lord of might

Who to Thy tribes On Sinai's height

In ancient times didst give the law

In cloud and majesty and awe

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 ways to go

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel

Shall come to thee, O Israel
