Houston, Whitney - O Come O Come Emanuel Lyrics






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

Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emanuel shall come to thee, o Israel

(Bumm, bumm, bumm, bumm)
Ah well, ooh
(Bumm, bumm, bumm)
Ooh

O come, Desire of nations, bind
Bind as one the hearts of all mankind
Bid Thou our sad divisions cease
And be Thyself our King of peace

(Rejoice!) Rejoice! (Rejoice!) Rejoice! (Ooh)
Emanuel shall come to thee, o Israel
(O Israel, come to thee)
Rejoice! (Rejoice!) Rejoice! (Ooh)
Emanuel shall come to thee, o Israel
(O Israel, come to thee)
Rejoice! (Rejoice!) Rejoice! (Ooh)
Emanuel shall come to thee, o Israel
(O Israel, come to thee)
Rejoice! (Rejoice!) Rejoice! (Ooh)
Emanuel shall
(Shall come)

He's gonna come o Israel
(Shall come)
Don't you worry, God's gonna be there
(Emanuel shall come)
Emanuel, He's gonna come
O Israel
Ooh yeah

    I love this song... it’s a beautiful version.. deep album cut

  14. A.... W....

    Omg she murked this. Get yo life. The voice slayed this in Jesus' name! Wow

  15. m.... c....

    2:03 the way she slays the word Israel she opens up her throat and let you have it goose bumps!

  16. m.... c....

    she sung the paint off this one, what better person to be paired with Take 6 she slayyyyyyyyyed! The natural notes and upper register resonance, melisma and scales if off the chain.

  17. w.... ....

    Classic

  18. C.... M....

    Listen to how vocally perfect this woman's voice is. Listen to how complete it is. Listen to the acrobatics, and how she does it with perfect ease, dexterity, and control. However people actually have the audacity to try to put Mariah Carey's voice over hers. I give Mariah the high whistle notes, and the high range, but when it comes down to every other aspect of the voice. Whitney completely slays Mariah Carey, and always will. This song Alone proves it.

    C.... M....

    Couldn't agree with you any more. Merry Christmas and have a blessed New Year.

    C.... M....

    Haha, exactly. I find myself commenting on her videos like you did here "just listen......" Totally agree.

    C.... M....

    Why cant you just enjoy her voice instead comparing to other singer?

  19. D.... ....

    The greatest female singer of all time!

  20. N.... M....

    I love this song!

  21. X.... D....

    Whitney had what we call the show-off vocals. We miss them dearly.

  22. E.... G....

    Every hair on my body is standing up and the heavens are applauding!!!! How can you not feel this in the deepest parts of every bone in your body! Her voice is earth shattering and the background vocals from Take 6 are just...OMG, this song is perfection. There is not a more perfect song that exist on the planet! Bravo Miss Houston! THIS is what you need to be remembered for!!!!

    E.... G....

    This song is amazing!

  23. t.... y....

    This is a music for people, not GOD... even, feel like a blasphemy to me... dear, Whitney, God will not happy with this music...

    t.... y....

    Ummm ... this is a gospel song, technically. No one has to sing it the traditional way. Every now and then, u can change it up a little, but I respect your opinion.

    t.... y....

    You crazy as hell

    t.... y....

    And who are you to determine who this music is for? Of what authority are you?

    t.... y....

    Shut up 😒

    t.... y....

    Tae yeong you must not know Emanuel! Listen to the words of the song, not so much who is singing it. Although she did an excellent job!! God is very much pleased!

  24. A.... C....

    This woman was beyond amazing.

  25. j.... ....

    That Ending As she would say..My Lord!! Amazing

  26. A.... W....

    2:42 the best run I have ever heard in history!!!

    A.... W....

    When I try to imitate, I fail oh so miserably, lol.

    A.... W....

    Whitney was the queen of melisma.

  27. J.... J....

    I feel so privileged to live in the same era as you Whitney. I got the honor to meet you and your humility and kindness even surpassed your incomparable talent.

  28. M.... W....

    Simply beautiful❤

  29. K.... T....

    She slayed it definitely

  30. O.... D....

    Slay queen! That last run slays my existence!

    O.... D....

    One Dollar Bleach To the max.

    O.... D....
