Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And ransom captive Israel.
That mourns in lonely exile here, until the son of god appears.
Rejoice, rejoice Emmanuel!
Rejoice shall come, to you o Israel.
O come thou day spring come and cheer, our spirits by thine advent here.
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night, and death's dark shadows put to flight.
Rejoice, rejoice Emmanuel!
Rejoice, let your voice, all the earth make a joyful noise.
Shout the news, go and tell, His will Emmanuell.
REJOICE!
REJOICE!
REJOICE!
REJOICE!
REJOICE!
REJOICE!
REJOICE!
Rejoice, rejoice Emmanuel!
Rejoice shall come to you o Israel!
Rejoice shall come, to you o Israel!
REJOICE!

The lyrics of Java Gospel feat. Dogge Doggelito's song "Rejoice" are a call to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. The song lifts up the name of Emmanuel, which means "God is with us," and expresses the longing for his coming. It starts with the plea, "O come, o come Emmanuel," which is taken from an ancient Christian hymn that was originally composed in Latin. The hymn was written around the 8th or 9th century and is still sung in churches today during the Advent season.
The first verse of the song speaks of the Israelites who were living in exile and crying out for a savior. The birth of Jesus would deliver them from their captivity and bring them hope. The second verse asks for the day spring to come and cheer our spirits. This refers to Jesus being the dawn of a new day, bringing light and joy into our lives. The verse also speaks of Jesus dispelling the darkness of night and driving away death's shadow, which symbolizes his power to overcome sin and death.
The chorus is a repeating call to rejoice, telling everyone to make a joyful noise and shout the news of Emmanuel's coming. The song ends with the repetition of the last two lines of the second verse and the chorus, reminding us to rejoice because the savior has come.
Overall, "Rejoice" is a powerful and uplifting song that reminds us of the hope and joy that comes with the birth of Jesus Christ. The lyrics are filled with images that speak to our spiritual longing for deliverance and our celebration of the savior's arrival.
