Behold Emmanuel

Far away from home An unfamiliar place A cold and bitter wind No walls to keep them safe A cry the only sound A star the only light A mother holds her child Peace on earth tonight Heaven’s glory Place within a humble world to dwell Son of God, Son of Man love is with us Behold Emmanuel From stables’ muddy sod Where cattle make their bed A Father’s song is born To touch the souls of men For every life that’s lost For every heart that’s found It reaches out this night As far as man is found Heaven’s glory Place within a humble world to dwell Son of God, Son of Man love is with us Behold Emmanuel Heaven’s glory Place within a humble world to dwell Son of God, Son of Man love is with us Behold Emmanuel
