One of us is cryin’ as our hopes and dreams are led away in chains
And we're left all alone
One of us is dyin’ as our love is slowly lowered in the grave
Oh, and we're left on our own
But for all of us who journey through the dark abyss of loneliness
There comes a great announcement, we are never alone
For the make of each heart that breaks, the giver of each breath we take
Has come to earth and given hope its birth

And our God is with us, Emmanuel
He's come to save us, Emmanuel
And we will never face life alone
Now that God has made Himself know
As Father and Friend, with us through the end, Emmanuel

He spoke with prophets' voices and showed Himself in a cloud of fire
But no one had see His face
Until the One Most Holy revealed to us His perfect heart's desire
And left His rightful place
And in on glorious moment, all eternity was shaken
As God broke through the darkness that had kept us apart
And with love that conquers loneliness, and hope that fill all emptiness
He came to earth to show our worth

And our God is with us, Emmanuel
He's come to save us, Emmanuel
And we will never face life alone
Now that God has made Himself know
As Father and Friend, with us through the end, Emmanuel
So rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel has come

And our God is with us, Emmanuel
He's come to save us, Emmanuel
And we will never face life alone
Now that God has made Himself know
As Father and Friend, with us through the end, Emmanuel
