O come, o come Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the son of God appear
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Long ago, a people in captivity
Cried to their god in their iniquity
A voice foretold - they would be free before long
A prophet sang of a nativity
A song of hope in their adversity
A king would come and hear their freedom song.
Singing
Day by day
Freedom's on the way
Come what may
We'll set the bells a-ringin'
Let them hear the song that we are singin'
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Two thousand years and still we search for unity
Don't forget the homeless and the refugee
Now who will come and show them the way?
So many still lost from our community
Who will end their hunger and their misery?
The time has come - don't want another day
O come, o come and offer up a prayer
A ransom for the captives everywhere
Who mourn in lonely exile still
A longing only freedom can fulfil
How can we rejoice, rejoice
When all around we see
A world where people struggle to be free?
Day by day
Freedom's on the way
O come, o come and join us in the fight
It's time to turn the darkness into light
O hear the lonely exiles cry
They long to be as free as you and I
Let us all rejoice, rejoice!
For we can be their voice, their voice!
Let us all rejoice, rejoice!
So people have a choice, a choice!
Let us all rejoice, rejoice
For freedom is at hand
To meet us when we reach our promised land
