In the stillness came a cry
From the infant lungs of the breath of life
In the darkness shone a light
Of the breaking dawn
Of the end of night

The love of God has come to us
Emmanuel, Emmanuel
The Word made flesh
The promise kept
Emmanuel, Emmanuel is here

In the waiting
We have longed
For the melody of the angels' song
Come behold Him
Come bow down
For the King of Heaven is with us now

The love of God has come to us
Emmanuel, Emmanuel
The Word made flesh
The promise kept
Emmanuel, Emmanuel

He'll be your hope
He'll be your light
He'll be your strength and your peace
And your song in the night

He'll be your King (my King)
He'll be your friend (my friend)
And of His kingdom there will be no end

The love of God has come to us
Emmanuel, Emmanuel
The Word made flesh
The promise kept (He makes every promise kept)
Emmanuel, Emmanuel is here
He is here
