Lyrics O Come, O Come, Emmanuel - Linda Ronstadt

O Come, O Come, Emmanuel

O Come, O Come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears
Rejoice!
Rejoice!
Oh Israel
To Thee Shall come Emmanuel
O come, O Dayspring, bright and cheer
Our spirits by thine advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death’s dark shadows put to flight
Rejoice!
Rejoice!
Oh Israel
To Thee Shall come Emmanuel
O come, Thou Wisdom from on high
Who orders all things far and nigh
To us the path of knowledge show
And cause us in her ways to go
Rejoice!
Rejoice!
Oh Israel
To Thee Shall come Emmanuel
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
Rejoice!
Rejoice!
Oh Israel
To Thee Shall come Emmanuel
