O come, O come, Emmanuel! Redeem thy captive Israel That into exile drear is gone, Far from the face of God's dear Son.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O come, thou Branch of Jesse! draw The quarry from the lion's claw; From the dread caverns of the grave, From nether hell, thy people save.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O come, O come, thou Dayspring bright! Pour on our souls thy healing light; Dispel the long night's lingering gloom, And pierce the shadows of the tomb.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O Come, thou Lord of David's Key! The royal door fling wide and free; Safeguard for us the heavenward road, And bar the way to death's abode.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O come, O come, Adonai, Who in thy glorious majesty From that high mountain clothed in awe, Gavest thy folk the elder Law.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel.

too easy

[Mark Paps]

Have we all gone so mad that the very essence of our existance we praise, one calls a bunch of 2 face fuckers?Has the very essence of the spirituality of what is sung not given you even an ounce of humble smallness to he that gave you life?

[REV16665]

I think you're preaching to the choir. Why don't you ask jayme198327, the person who was kicked out of it?

[P8triotUSA]

I had been very rude to someone. Very unlike me.  I came to this piece of music to wash myself of that anger. And so it was. Beautiful rendition. Thank you. Shalom & Merry Christmas to all of Goodwill.

[Robin Foley]

This beautifully performed hymn ought to be the hope of every Christian thoughout the world. And as we do our best to be a reflection of God's light in the world, may our hearts pray the words of St. John, 'Even so come Lord Jesus' .

[trez32]

I prefer Augst Burns Red's version

[narwhal17]

Yeah, I'm atheist but I've always found a lot of things religion creates beauty, like the sound of church choirs, this song especially. <3

[Sean Boyle]

Religious music is beautiful!

[BootinTroopsinPutin]

[Equinerhael]

This is beautiful! My name is Christian. Literally! And I am a Christian!

[bananaphoneist]

I am an atheist, and I will not deny the beauty of this piece, nor ever would for any religious piece of music.

[Erik Kohler]

I'm absolutely not religious, and definitely not Christian (the thing that gets nearest would probably be a mix of various Pagan religions), this song is beautiful and touching though, and I love it. That once again proves that music crosses over all borders, of time, ethnicity, religion, race, language, culture... and maybe that's one of the many, many reasons I love music so much.

[REV16665]

Many christians aren't very christian, are they?
