o come, o come emmanuel and ransom captive israel that mourns in lonely exile here until the son of g-d appears. o come, though dayspring, come and cheer our spirit by thine advent here. disperse the gloomy clouds of night and deaths dark shadows, put to flight. o come, thou key of david, come and open wide our heav'nly home. make safe the way that leads on high and close the path to misery. o come desire of nations bind, all peoples in one heart and mind. bid envy, strife, and quarrel cease. fill all the world with heavens peace. rejoice, rejoice emmanuel. shall come to the o' israel. amen.
