O come, O come Emmanuel
Rescue your world and make all things well
For us in isolation here
Who groan in loneliness and fear:
Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel
Walks with us and all shall be well.
O come, O come thou Fountain of life
Release us from our fears and strife
For us who live with illness and death
Heal us and restore us to life.
Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel
Walks with us and all shall be well.
O Come, O come Emmanuel,
Abide with us and help us to see
The new things you have planned for us
That we in faith might walk unafraid.
Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel
Walks with us and all shall be well.
O Come our Living Bridegroom, come
And may your gracious will be done
That we may see heaven’s rule on earth
Your kingdom values come to birth.
Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel
Walks with us and all shall be well.
O Come, O Come Emmanuel,
And bring us hope that all shall be well,
That as we endure tempest and storm
Through your love we shall not be overcome,
Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel,
Walks with us and all shall be well.
Creator, Living, Loving God
Awaken us to your presence here
For in your love we put our trust
And know that you abide with us.
Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel
Walks with us and all shall be well.
