O Come, O Come Emmanuel Lyrics

O come, O come, Emmanuel,
to free your captive Israel
that mourns in lonely exile here
until the son of god appear.

Rejoice! Rejoice! O Israel
to you shall come Emmanuel.

O veni, veni Emmanuel,
Captivum solve Israel,
Qui gemit in exilio,
Privates Dei Filio.

Gaude! Gaude! Emmanuel
nascetur pro te, Israel.

Gaude! Gaude!
Gaude! Gaude!
Gaude! Gaude!
Gaude! Gaude!

Gaude! Gaude! Emmanuel
nascetur pro te, Israel.

Gaude! Gaude! Emmanuel
nascetur pro te, Israel.

Cover art for O Come, O Come Emmanuel lyrics by Enya

It is the hymn of "O,Emmanuel". She just brings it up to date. Including the Latin. :)

Ikr, I srsly love the version of it she did. I literally fell asleep to it one night while it was on repeat. So haunting and beautiful :). I love to sing it as well, but this is a hard piece to sing correctly. I still need a little work, but I've gotten a lot better ^_^.
