O Come O Come Emmanuel Testo

O Come, O Come Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
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
O come, Thou Rod of Jesse free
Thine own from Satan's tyranny
From depths of hell Thy people save
And giveth them victory o'er the grave
O come, Thou day-spring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death's dark shadows put to flight
