| We have come today to worship
|
| We have come to praise the One
|
| Who came down into our darkness
|
| Born a lowly virgin’s son
|
| You who did not come with splendor
|
| Pomp and strength and majesty
|
| You who came to us in weakness
|
| Born to us in poverty
|
| Emmanuel, Emmanuel, Emmanuel
|
| In You alone we hope and trust
|
| Jesus, Savior, God with us
|
| Emmanuel
|
| We were blind and lost and godless
|
| Wandering a trackless waste
|
| Then hope arose, a glorious beacon
|
| Like the star the wise men chased
|
| Down from heaven came a Savior
|
| Born a child, so small and frail
|
| Taking up our pain and troubles
|
| Conquering where we had failed
|
| You who with a word created
|
| Sun and moon and seas and sand
|
| Lay there sleeping in a manger
|
| Cradled by Your mother’s hand
|
| You who made the mighty forests
|
| Would lie down upon a tree
|
| Fastened there with nails for sinners
|
| Would bleed and die to set us free |
