Virtual Liner Notes
This is a song that describes the longing of a people in captivity to be liberated and of a people in exile to be brought home. It is a cry to be set free from tyranny and saved from the “gloomy clouds of night.” Although life can sometimes feel hopeless, the hope of Emmanuel calls one to rejoice.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
