MercyMe - O Come, O Come Lyrics






O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear

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

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

    What is the title of this traditional tune?

    I think it is "Oh Come, Oh Come Emmanuel". God's blessings to you & your family this beautiful season.

    @K Kr I answered my own question - the traditional tune is called "The Water Is Wide" - thanks for your help!

    Heidi Kalabisko The intro of this song is taken from the song “The Water is Wide “ . The first time I heard MercyMe sing this version of O come O come Emanuel, it startled me 😊 Since I remember singing “The Water is Wide” way back in junior high in chorus. The more I listened, the more I liked how MercyMe incorporated the melody of that song, different lyrics, but the new lyrics added works beautifully with ❤️

    I love this arrangement as well. If anyone is curious, the verse melody is from an old Scottish folk song. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Water_Is_Wide_(song)
