Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #172 (1913) First Line: O come, O come, Immanuel Lyrics: 1 O come, O come, Emmanuel,
And ransom captive Israel,
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear.
Rejoice! rejoice! Immanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel!
2 O come, Thou Rod of Jesse's, free
Thine own fromSatan's tyranny;
From depths of hell thy people save
And give them victory o'er the grave.
Rejoice! rejoice! Immanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel!
3 O 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! Immanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel!
4 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! Immanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel!
5 O come, O come, Thou 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! Immanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel!
