Veni Veni Emmanuel [English translation]

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 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.

Rejoice ! Rejoice ! Emmanuel

Shall come to thee, O Israel.

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

Shall come to thee, O Israel.
