Words by Andy GleiserJosh SparkmanKey signature: D major (2 sharps)Meter: 12.12.6.12. with Refrain© Copyright 2021 by Determined Hymns. All rights reserved.1. Our hearts unite to tell of our Emmanuel, The brightest star adorning heaven’s royal crown. Mighty God, helpless child, Hope of all the world for ruined ones come down.Refrain: God with us! Oh, let the chorus swell of Jesus Emmanuel.2. We voice a glad Noel to our Emmanuel, We join with all the angels singing of His birth, “Gloria, God Most High! Peace to those who know His favor on the earth.”3. Our sins— Oh, how they fell on our Emmanuel, God crushed Him ’neath the weight of our iniquities. Bound to man, cursed by God; Neverending grace upon His enemies.4. Inside the grave’s dark cell lay our Emmanuel, But God unleashed a power death had never known. Living God, risen man, Coming soon to dwell forever with His own.
