2. #23 - Oh, Come, Oh, Come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear.
[Refrain] Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to you, O Israel!

3. #23 - Oh, Come, Oh, Come, Emmanuel
[2] Oh, come, O Root of Jesse, free
Your own from Satan's tyranny;
From depths of hell your people save,
And bring them vict'ry o'er the grave.
[Refrain] Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to you, O Israel!

4. #23 - Oh, Come, Oh, Come, Emmanuel
[3] Oh, come, O Day-spring from on high,
And cheer us by your drawing nigh;
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,
And death's dark shadows put to flight.
[Refrain] Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to you, O Israel!

5. #23 - Oh, Come, Oh, Come, Emmanuel
[4] Oh, come, O Key of David, come,
And open wide our heav'nly home.
Make save the way that leads on high,
And close the path to misery.
[Refrain] Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to you, O Israel!
