HYMN Lyrics Text: O Come, O Come Thou Child Emmanuel | Advent Song
HYMN Lyrics Text: O Come, O Come Thou Child Emmanuel
1. O come, O come, Thou child
Emmanuel
to free Thy people,
captive Israel!
From exile lead them home,
Thou promised One
so long awaited,
God's beloved Son
Rejoice, rejoice, the child Emmanuel
shall soon be born
to save thee, Israel.
2. O come, O come,
Thou shoot of Jesse's tree!
Thy downcast people
from bonds set free!
Thy loved ones
rescue from their deadly foe:
Save them from evi
and from every woe
3. O come and rise,
Thou Dayspring in the sky!
Come shine on us
who deep in shadow lie!
Come radiant dawn,
to end sin's weary night,
the clouds of doom
forever put to flight!
4. O come, O come,
Who art the Lord most high,
Who didst of old
come down on Sinai
to give Thy law in sight of Israel
in wondrous splendour,
come Emmanuel.
