Emmanuel, God With Us

We dim the light.
 We stoke the fire.
 We breathe the evergreen.
 Young ones wait
 While the old ones make up
 Tales of how it used to be.
 China dolls,
 Candy corn,
 Painted wooden toys,
 Treasures found
 To the wondrous sound
 Of carolling the savior
 Born to us on christmas morn.
 Emmanuel, God with us,
 Emmanuel!
 Emmanuel, God with us,
 The son of israel.
 And still he calls
 Through the night,
 Beyond the days of old.
 A voice of peace
 To the weary ones,
 Who struggle with the human soul.
 All of us,
 Travellers,
 Through a given time.
 Who can know
 What tomorrow holds?
 But over the horizon,
 Surely you and I will find.
 Emmanuel, God with us,
 Emmanuel!
 Emmanuel, God with us,
 The son of israel.
 And the years they come,
 And the years they go,
 Though we may forget somehow
 That the child once born in bethlehem
 Is still among us now.
 (emmanuel...)
 (emmanuel, God with us.
 The son of israel.)
 Emmanuel, God with us, (emmanuel.)
 Emmanuel! (emmanuel.)
 Emmanuel, God with us, (emmanuel.)
 The son of israel. (israel.)
 The son of israel.
 The son of is... israel. (son of israel.)
