42. O Come, O Come, Emmanuel
“They shall call His name Emmanuel.” Matthew 1:23
Words: Latin Hymn; Music: VENI EMMANUEL
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 Dayspring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death’s dark shadows put to flight
O come, Desire of nations, bind
All peoples in one heart and mind
Bid envy, strife, and quarrels cease
Fill the whole world with heaven’s peace
