Sabbath Song

I love the haunting quality of this Enya version:



O come, o come emmanuel,
To free your captive Israel.
That mourns in lonely exile here,
Until the Son of God appear.

Refrain:
Rejoice! Rejoice!
O Israel, to you shall
come Emmanuel.

Veni, veni, Emanuel!
Captivum solve Israel!

Qui gemit in exilio,
Privatus Dei Filio.

Refrain:
Gaude, gaude, Emanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel.

Chanting - Gaude, gaude

Refrain: (2x)
Gaude, gaude, Emanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel.
