Latin:
- O Emmanuel, Rex et legifer noster,
exspectatio Gentium, et Salvator earum:
veni ad salvandum nos, Domine, Deus noster.
English:
- O Emmanuel, our king and our lawgiver,
- the hope of the nations and their Saviour:
Come and save us, O Lord our God.
[Verse 1] O Come, O Come, Emmanuel
O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear
Antiphon Chant: O Emmanuel
O Come, O Come, Emmanuel
Isaiah had prophesied:
- “Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Look, the young woman is with child and shall bear a son, and shall name him Immanuel.” Isaiah 7:14
(Emmanuel means God is with us).
