Advent Song Cycle, Week 2 – Rejoice

This Week’s Song: “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel,” verses 1 & 2    

This song is #56 in our church’s hymnal. 

O come, O come, Emmanuel,

And ransom captive Israel, 

That mourns in lonely exile here

Until the Son of God appear.

Rejoice! Rejoice!

Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel!

O come, thou Wisdom from on high, 

Who orderest all things mightily.

To us the path of knowledge show,

And teach us in her ways to go. 

Rejoice! Rejoice!

Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel!
