Tune: Veni Emmanuel
(\'O come, O come, Emmanuel\')
Isaiah 9 v.6-7
*******
The Advent hope is sure, a song
Raise, for the Lord will not be long
Will come to bring salvation\'s day
And sin and evil put away
Chorus
Emmanuel, He be God with us
His grace and mercy shown to us
For unto us a child is born
Unto us the Dayspring does dawn
Unto us a son is given
Jesus, God\'s Son, who comes from heaven - Chorus
The government shall be upon
His shoulders, He the reigning one
His name shall be called Wonderful
Counsellor, The Mighty God all - Chorus
The Everlasting Father, He
And too The prince of Peace He be
Of the increase of His governing
And of peace there no end, we sing - Chorus
It shall be upon throne of David
His kingdom ordered, not be hid
And it established with judgement
And with justice with no relent - Chorus
From henceforth e\'en for ever, see
His eternal rule, reign, shall be
The zeal of the LORD God of hosts
Will this perform, unto earth\'s far coasts - Chorus
