11.Emmanuel, God with Us
Written:Amy Grant/Chris Eaton/Robert Marshall
We dim the light.
We stoke the fire.
We breathe the ever-green.
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
Chorus:
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 travelers
Through a gvien time
Who can know what tomorrow holds
But over the horizon
Surely you and I will find
Chorus
And the years they come
And the years they go
Through we may forget somehow
That the child once born in Bethlehem is still among us now
Chorus
