[MIDI] |
O come O come Emmanuel,
And ransom captive Israel.
That lives in earthly exile here,
Until the Son of God appear.
Rejoice! Rejoice! O Israel
To thee shall come Emmanuel!
O come thou wisdom son divine,
Our weakened wills to Thee incline.
And shed Thy light o’er life’s dark way,
Lest, lured by sin we go astray.
Rejoice! Rejoice! O Israel
To thee shall come Emmanuel!
O come thou sprout of Jesse’s tree,
Free us from Satan’s tyranny.
From fires of hell Thy people save,
And give us victory o’er the grave.
Rejoice! Rejoice! O Israel
To thee shall come Emmanuel!
O come thou king of all the earth,
That we may share Thy wondrous birth.
Come, rule our hearts and mind and will
That we Thy precepts may fulfill.
Rejoice! Rejoice! O Israel
To thee shall come Emmanuel!
