O Come, O Come, Emmanuel

這首詩歌送給每一個在苦難中依然有盼望的人, 他們就像流離失所的以色列民,即使困苦仍相信未來充滿希望。

  

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.
   
O 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
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O 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.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O 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.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O come, O come, Thou Lord of might,
Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai's height,
In ancient times did'st give the Law,
In cloud, and majesty and awe.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel. 

 

以馬內利，懇求降臨

 

一  以馬內利，懇求降臨！

救贖被擄以色列民；

淪落異邦，寂寞傷心，

引頸渴望神子降臨。

 

（副）歡欣！歡欣！以色列民；

以馬內利定要降臨！

 

二  耶西枝條，懇求降臨！

撒但手中，釋放子民；

陰間深處，拯救子民，

使眾得勝死亡之墳。

 

三  清晨日光，懇求降臨！

藉主降臨，歡慰眾心；

衝開長夜幽暗愁雲，

驅散死亡深沉黑影。

 

四  大衛之鑰，懇求降臨！

大開我們天上家庭；

保守我們奔走天程，

斷絕我們愁苦曲徑。
