I want nothing, nothing, nothing
I want nothing this year
All those angels, shepherds, presents
They were all too big
Too big for me

I pretended, I pretended
I pretended I knew
Now I wonder, now I wonder
Now I'm lost like you

Emanuel,
God is with us
God is in my enemy
Emanuel,
God is in us
God is in my dearest friend

Emanuel,
God is in us
God beginning, God end
But what is God?

If you came to us for Christmas
Then where were you before?
To hear your carols tell it
You had run away

When I left here, I was angry
And I come back still the same
When I see you, I want nothing
I see you in me
There is nothing more

Emanuel,
God is in me
God is in my worst mistake
Emanuel,
God is in you
God is in your clemency

Emanuel,
God is in us
The beginning and the end
In all things good
In all things good
