FOR KING & COUNTRY
"O Come, O Come Emmanuel"
(Traditional)

[Intro: Joel]
Oh!

O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear

[Refrain:]
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel

[Break: Joel]
Oh!
Oh!

O come, Thou Dayspring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death's dark shadows put to flight

[Refrain:]
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel

[Break: Joel]
Oh!
Oh!

O come, Thou Key of David, come
And open wide Thy Heavenly home
Make safe the way that leads on high
And close the path to misery

[Interlude: Joel]
Would you stand with us and sing this chorus? Rejoice

[Refrain: Joel & Luke, Audience, Joel, Joel & Audience]
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Sing it
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
