Falling Up - Emanuel lyrics

Oh, come, oh, come, Emmanuel And ransom captive Israel That mourns in lonely exile here Until the Son of God appear Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to you, O Israel! Oh, come, our Wisdom from on high Who ordered all things mightily; To us the path of knowledge show And teach us in her ways to go Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to you, O Israel! Oh, come, oh, come, our Lord of might Who to your tribes on Sinai's height In ancient times gave holy law In cloud and majesty and awe Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to you, O Israel! Oh, come O Rod of Jesse's stem From ev'ry foe deliver them That trust your mighty pow'r to save; Bring them in vict'ry through the grave Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to you, O Israel! Oh, come, O Key of David, come And open wide our heav'nly home; Make safe the way that leads on high And close the path to misery Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to you, O Israel! Oh, come, our Dayspring from on high And cheer us by your drawing nigh Disperse the gloomy clouds of night And d**h's dark shadows put to flight Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to you, O Israel! Oh, come, Desire of nations, bind In one the hearts of all mankind; Oh, bid our sad divisions cease And be yourself our King of Peace Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to you, O Israel!
