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

Thine own from Satan’s tyranny
From depths of hell Thy people save
And give them victory o’er the grave

And cheer us by Thy drawing nigh
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death’s dark shadows put to flight

And open wide our heav’nly home;
Make safe the way that leads on high,
And close the path to misery.

O come, Adonai, Lord of might,
Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai’s height
In ancient times didst give the law
In cloud and majesty and awe
