Immanuel

from Incarnation Songs by Folk Hymnal

/

lyrics

Oh love that brings us to our knees
With grace that brings eternal peace
The Son of man did condescend
With healing hands this world to mend

For stain and filth is our torment
But beautiful is His advent
The lowly babe for mortals’ sake
Will satisfy creation’s ache

Immanuel, the hope our hearts have waited for, have waited for
The Prince of Peace, the Savior King, forevermore, forevermore

The light into the darkness shine
An eastern star displays the sign
A manger seats the human form
Of God who by His grace was born

So sing until your lungs are spent
Concede your will to joy’s consent 
His birth will end our earthly strife
His death will bring the saints to life

The angels sing, the Lord has come
Our voices ring, the Lord has come
