��From the Latin. I'r. John Mason Neale (IS18-1S6G).
Veni, veni Emmanuel.
OCOME, 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, Israel.
��come, thou Rod of Jesse, free Thine own from Satan's tyranny ; From depths of hell thy people save. And give them victory o'er the grave.
��come, thou Day-spring, come and cheer Our spirits by thine Advent here ; Disperse the gloomy clouds of night, And death's dark shadows put to flight.
��come, thou Key of David, come. And open wide our heavenly home ; Make safe the way that leads on high. And close the path to misery.
��come, come, thou Lord of Might, Who to thy tribes, on Sinai's height, In ancient times didst give the law In cloud, and majesty, and awe. Rejoice/ Rejoice/ Emmanuel Shall come to thee, Israel.
