Verse 1
O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear
Chorus
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Verse 2
O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free
Thine own from Satan’s tyranny
From depths of hell Thy people save
And give them victory o’er the grave
Chorus 2
Simchu, Simchu, Emmanuel
Yavo lachem b’nei Yisrael
Verse 3
O come, Thou Key of David, come
And open wide our heavenly home
Make safe the way that leads on high
And close the path to misery
Chorus 2
Simchu, simchu, Emmanuel
Yavo lachem b’nei Yisrael
