Lyrics Emmanuel - Hannah Kerr

Emmanuel

He was not the One we thought would come
We were looking for a king
But He didn’t come in glory
The Author of the oceans and the sun
Still, He chose to be
Written in our story
So He could feel our flesh and blood
And we could know His love
Emmanuel
A manger for a bed
No crown upon His head
He came like us instead
Emmanuel
He meets you where you are
He holds your heavy heart
Our God is with us all
Emmanuel
Emmanuel
It was no mistake that He arrived
Lost without a home
Helpless as a baby
So if we’re feeling lost in our own lives
We are not alone
He has felt the same things
Because He lived in flesh and blood
We can know His love
Emmanuel
A manger for a bed
No crown upon His head
He came like us instead
Emmanuel
He meets you where you are
He holds your heavy heart
Our God is with us all
Emmanuel!
Emmanuel
Oh, what an invitation
Oh, His only expectation
Is for us to come and offer Him our all
To kneel before the Child who shall be called
Emmanuel
A manger for a bed
No crown upon His head
He came like us instead
Emmanuel
He meets you where you are
He holds your heavy heart
Our God is with us all
Emmanuel!
Emmanuel
