1.	O come, O come, Emmanuel, 
	And ransom captive Israel, 
	That mourns in lonely exile here, 
	Until the Son of God appear. 
	(Refrain)

2.	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. 
	(Refrain)

3.	O come, Thou Wisdom from on high, 
	And order all things, far and nigh; 
	To us the path of knowledge show, 
	And cause us in her ways to go. 
	(Refrain)

4.	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. 
	(Refrain)

Refrain:
	Rejoice!  Rejoice!  Emmanuel 
	Shall come to thee, O Israel!
