Lyrics:
VERSE 1
Prophets promised long ago
A King would come to bring us hope
And now a virgin bears a son
The time to save the world has come
VERSE 2
Humble shepherds run in haste
To see the One the angels praised
In cattle stall they find a girl
Who holds the hope of all the world
CHORUS
Emmanuel has come to us
The Christ is born, Hallelujah!
Our God made low to raise us up
Emmanuel has come to us
VERSE 3
As He sleeps upon the hay
He holds the moon and stars in place
Though born an infant He remains
The sovereign God of endless days
VERSE 4
For all our sins one day He’ll die
To make us sons of God on high
Let every heart prepare Him room
The promises have all come true
