Oh, Come, oh, Come, Emmanuel [Ukrainian translation]

Oh, come, oh, 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, oh, Israel.

Oh, come, oh, come, Thou Day-Spring bright,

Pour on our souls Thy healing light,

Dispell the long lights lingering gloom

And pierce the shadows of the tomb.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel

Shall come to thee, oh, Israel,

Shall come to thee, oh, Israel.

Oh, come, desire of nations bind

In one the hearts of all mankind,

Bid every strife and quarrel cease,

And fill the world* with heaven’s peace.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel

Shall come to thee, (shall come to thee).

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel

Shall come to thee, oh, Israel.
