about

An original adaption of the traditional carol

lyrics

O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel

Creation groans in agony
We hold the keys to liberty
But so worn down by cares of life
We e'en neglect our own in strife
(rejoice...)

O God, we feel so far from Thee
Thy presence, Thy eternity
This fallen world is far from home
And You seem hid by cloud, unknown
(rejoice...)

And on that day when God shall dwell
With man in our new 'Israel'
Thy kingdom come, our fall undone
And all creation joined as one
(rejoice...)
