O Come, O Come Emmanuel Songtext
von Sleeping At Last

Oh come, oh 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, oh Israel

Oh come thou day spring come and cheer
Our spirits by thine advent here
And drive away the shades of night
And pierce the clouds and bring us light


Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, oh Israel
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, oh Israel

Oh come desire of nations bind
In one the hearts of all mankind
Bid thou our sad divisions cease
And be thyself our King of peace

Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, oh Israel
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, oh Israel
