We
saw a star and
fol lowed it from the east
We've come so far to get here
We held one hope that
we might find a King
How could we know that
He would be God?
With us, Emmanuel come
To us, the King of Israel abides
With us, in this little boy
who could know we'd fight
The Eternal One, born into time
This baby child is God with
us
He brought him gold
and frankincense and myrrh
When the rich as untold he left behind
We brought our best to celebrate a king
Who'd left his throne
So he could be God with us
Emmanuel come to us
The King of Israel abides with us
In this little boy who could not
know we'd find
Mortal and mystery some
how intertwined
This baby child is God with us.
In all our wisdom we came to seek a king
But how do you prepare
to meet the Lord?
And in all my wildest hopes
I never even dreamed
What the star was truly pointing toward
Who the star was truly shining for
Star of light, oh star of light
Shone with royal beauty bright
Whilst we're leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect
light.
Come with us,
Emmanuel comes to us,
The King of Israel abides with us.
And this little boy who could
not to fight,
the Creator born,
Redeemer of mankind.
And the hand of God is
reaching out for mine.
This baby child is gone,
gone with us.
Mary's baby child is gone,
gone with us.
You
