And ransom captive Israel,
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears.

To thee shall come Emmanuel!

And order all things far and nigh,
To us a path of knowledge show,
And teach us in her ways to go.

Who to thy tribes on Saini's height,
In ancient times did give the law,
In cloud and majesty and awe.

From ev'ry foe deliver them,
That trust thy mighty power to save,
And give them victory o'er the grave.

And open wide our heavenly home,
Make safe the way that leads on high,
That we no more have cause to sigh.

And cheer us by thy drawing nigh;
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,
And death's dark shadow put to flight.

In one the hearts of all mankind,
Bid everystrife and quarrel cease
And fill the world with heaven;y peace.
