The skies don't seem to be as dark as usual The stars seem brighter then they've been before Deep within I feel my soul a stirring As though my hope has been restored The shepherds say they've heard the voice of angels Confirming rumors spread across the land That a child protected well from Herod's anger Is our Father's Son, and the son of man Love is raining down on the world tonight There's a presence here I can tell God is in us, God is for us, God is with us, Emmanuel He's the Savior we have been praying for In our humble hearts He will dwell God is in us, God is for us, God is with us, Emmanuel I feel compelled to tell all who will listen That peace on earth is not so out of reach If we can find grace, mercy and forgiveness He has come to save, He is all of these You're the Savior we have been praying for In our humble hearts You will dwell You are in us, You are for us, You are with us, Emmanuel

In the love of our friends and family In the lights of the Christmas tree In the smile of a friendly stranger In the gifts that we receive In the magic of the quiet moments In the wonder of the falling snow In a world that's full of mystery There is one thing we can know Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us In the memories that we're making In the laughter that we hear Even when we feel downhearted In the stillness You are near In the carol choir singing In the middle of the breaking bread All the joy that the Earth is shouting Echoes what the angels said Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us In the depths of a world so weary In the midst of a sky is so gray The love of God incarnate There in a manger lay In the depths of a world so weary In the midst of a sky is so gray The love of God incarnate There in a manger lay Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us Emmanuel God is with us

Dare to imagine Dare to believe in A true love that gave us A brand new beginning No room for a King No celebration and no ceremony In that little town, no, nobody would think This is the story of the coming glory Can you hear the prayers that people prayed? Can you see the skies begin to break? When Heaven and Earth were face to face Oh, how the world forever changed For God is with us God is with us All in a moment All in an instant The body was broken And it was finished So let us begin The celebration and the ceremony There's silence on Earth, but the Heavens are roarin' Tellin' the story of the coming glory Can you feel your heart begin to race? Can you see the tide begin to change? With all of our futures rearranged The world will never be the same For God is with us God is with us For God is with us Oh, can we see? Oh, can we see? God is with us Oh, can we hear? Oh, can we hear? For God is with us Dare to imagine Dare to believe in A true love that gave us A reason for living Can you feel the hope that's rushin' in? Can you hear the song that's echoin'? Join with the choir as we sing This is where love truly begins For God is with us God is with us For God is with us Oh, can we see? Oh, can we see? God is with us Oh, can we hear? Oh, can we hear? For God is with us Oh, can we see? Oh, can we see? God is with us

I need someone to blame! Feel contempt and betrayed, I am losing myself, my disdain takes control Being useless is worst, I can't do shit! Seeing your pain It kills me Losing you now, I'm provoked Useless I stand on the side I would take your pain if I could Is it God or the world, is there someone to blame? Is it fate or bad luck, who is failing you now? Infuriating how I'm forced to remain calm Disdain!!! Your pain became like hell to me Your death; sad way to set you free Disdained Aggravation before acceptance Scorn and hatred; a natural defence Deepest misery before salvation Godless suffering before redemption Now my nightmare's proclaimed I've found no one to blame It's a cruel twist of life Yet my rage can't be bound Exasperating how trivial we really are
