O King of the nations

O Come, Desire of nations, bind
In one the hearts of all mankind;
Bid Thou our sad divisions cease,
And be Thyself our King of Peace.

Rejoice!  Rejoice!  Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel!

O King of the nations, the ruler they long for, the cornerstone uniting all people:
     Come and save us all, whom You formed out of clay.
