The Light of Life descended to the world He made
The ageless Rock of Ages in a manger laid
Behold the Word that bore our flesh
The heart of God inside an infant’s chest

The Infinite incarnate in a virgin’s hands
The radiance of the Father in the Son of Man
Behold the peace that pierced the night
The hope of nations in a baby’s cry
Chorus
Emmanuel, glory in the highest
Emmanuel, heaven here beside us
God Himself, with us now to dwell
Emmanuel!
Verse 3
The sinless King of heaven crowned with guilt and shame
The Cornerstone was fastened to a wooden frame
Behold the Lamb that crushed our curse
And died to pay the price of our rebirth

Light in darkness, might for meekness
All the glory be to Jesus
Love has sought us, grace has reached us
All the glory be to Jesus

Away in a manger a baby is born
The Sovereign of heaven whom angels adore
Is wrapped in the weakness of our mortal frame
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

Away in a manger a servant is born
Made nothing to raise up the hopeless and poor
With grace as His burden and love as His yoke
The gentle Lord Jesus will shepherd our souls

The crown He’ll be given will pierce Him with thorns
The King will be cursed with our sin and our shame
The blameless Lord Jesus will die in our place

The darkness will tremble at His mighty roar
His mercy will triumph and death will be slain
The risen Lord Jesus forever will reign

All glory to Jesus forever
We lift high the name of our Savior
All glory to Jesus forever
We lift high the name of our Savior

Come For Us

Verse 1
You made us sinless, reflecting Your image

We were enslaved and increasingly restless
When will You come? Lord, how we ache for You

Lord, hear our prayer and come for us

Born of a virgin You came in our likeness
Loving the sinner in mercy and kindness
Dying our death, giving us life again

Knowing Your goodness we call You our Father
All that we need, given in Jesus
Chorus 2
Sent from heaven, our Messiah
You heard our prayer and came for us

Abba Father, hear us now

Verse 1
How low was our Redeemer brought, the King who held the stars
Lay helpless in a maiden’s arms and pressed against her heart
While sheep and cattle raised their voice the babe could speak no words
The ever flowing Spring of Joy had come to share our thirst
Verse 2
How low was our Redeemer brought, the Lord the worlds obeyed
Would stumble as He learned to walk upon the ground He’d made
The One the angels bowed before would kneel to wash our feet
And be at home among the poor though He owned everything
Chorus
Gloria, gloria in the highest
Gloria, gloria in the highest
Verse 3
How low was our Redeemer brought to raise us from our shame
And now the highest praise of all belongs to Jesus’ name
The Healer wounded on a tree to bear our grief and sin
The King gave up His crown so we could ever reign with Him

Hope of the Ages

Verse 1
The prophets had glimpsed and the angels had watched with awe
The unfolding plans of our faithful, redeeming God
What they longed for we have seen
What was promised we believe
Chorus
Hope of the Ages, Isaiah’s great light
Abraham’s offspring
Blessing of Jacob, Judah’s might
Hope of the Ages, David’s true Son
Desire of nations, promised salvation
God with us
Verse 2
The vision once clouded has now to our hearts appeared
Once shrouded in myst’ry, redemption has been made clear
Our Messiah now has come
Word made Flesh, the saving One
Bridge
All hail the One now revealed to the world
In Bethlehem born to a young virgin girl
Lamb without blemish yet cruelly betrayed
Who cried, “It is finished!” and rose from the grave
The Father’s great gift and the proof of His love
Hope of the Ages, our God here with us

Verse 1
The first Noel, earth and heaven embraced
As a virgin beheld her new born babe
From realms on high to a manger on earth
Salvation had dawned in a lowly birth
Chorus
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Verse 2
The Son of God, in kindness He came
As a friend to the hopeless, the lost, and the lame
Our sins He bore yet His name we despised
And the hands that brought healing were pierced as He died
Verse 3
The Author of Life, there lifeless He lay
As the grave cast its shadow and darkness reigned
Then out of death broke forth a great light
As He rose up in victory, the glorious Christ
Tag
Now let us all with one accord
Bring praises to our King
All glory, power, and honor be
Forever unto Him

Out of the depths of silent night
Immanuel, come hear our cry
Our grief is strong, our burdens great
The night is long and hope is faint
Verse 2
You came to set the captives free
A Morning Star of joy and peace
Why does this darkness feel so deep?
Why can’t our weary spirits see
Chorus
Glory, glory, glory in the darkest place
Glory, glory, glory let Your mercy reign
Verse 3
Out of the depths of silent night
A Savior born, a mother’s sigh
The darkness trembled at this Star
A beam of hope for troubled hearts

You came to make Your blessings known
And bear our curse of death alone
You came to share our suffering
So in our sorrow we could sing

Who Is This
04:44
|

Verse 1
Who is this, divine and tender, hailing from eternal shores?
Once arrayed in highest splendor, now in poverty adorned
He is Jesus, God made mortal, Word in flesh, the Light of Life
From a throne room to a stable, hope is born this holy night
Verse 2
Who is this of might and meekness, given all authority?
With a word He stills the tempest, at His touch the blind can see
He is Jesus our Messiah, long awaited, long proclaimed
Sing “Hosanna in the highest!” Christ the King has come to reign
Verse 3
Who is this reviled and stricken broken on a cursed tree?
Son of God by God forsaken, drenched in our iniquity
He is Jesus slain for sinners, laiden with our guilt and grief
All our praise to Him we render for His wounds have won our peace
Verse 4
Who is this entombed in darkness, cast into the bitter depths?
He whom grave nor Hell could harness rose and tore the sting from death
He is Jesus, God triumphant, risen to the Father’s side
All will bow in awe and reverence at the name of Jesus Christ
Tag
O come let us adore Him, O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him, Christ the LORD
