o come, o come emmanuel

Sandi Patty

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, Thou Day-spring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here
Who drive away the shades of night
And pierce the clouds and bring us light

Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, Thou Key of David, come
And open wide our heavenly home
Where are Thy saints within shelter
O come, O come Emmanuel

Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel
