A  G      Am7    G/B     C   D
To us, to all in sor-row and fear,

Emmanuel comes a-singing,
    G      Am7     G/B    C  D
His humble song is quiet and near,
G/B  Am7       D              C   G
Yet  fills the earth with its ringing.
D        D/F#     G   D   Em
Music to heal the bro-ken soul

A  G       Am7       G/B    C     D
In darkest night his coming shall be,
     G/B     C           Am7     D7
When all the world is de-spair-ing,
   G       Am7      G/B   C   D
As morning light so quiet and free,
G/B  Am7      D          C   G
So   warm and gentle and caring.
D             D/F#        G     D  Em
The shall the mute breaks forth in song,
Em/D  Am/D       D       Em    D7
The   lame shall leap in won - der,
    G        C       B7       Em
The weak be raised a-bove the strong,
    Am7        D7       G   Am7  G/B  C
And weapons be broken a-sun-der.


[Verse 4]

A   G       Am7        G/B      C   D
Rejoice, rejoice, take heart in the night,
       G/B      C          Am7      D7
Though dark the winter and cheerless,
    G      Am7       G/B       C    D
The rising sun shall crown you with light,
G/B  Am7        D          C    G
Be   strong and loving and fear-less;
D           D/F#     G    D   Em
Love be our song and love our prayer,
Em/D  Am/D      D       Em    D7
And   love, our endless sto - ry,
    G        C     B7     Em
May God fill every day we share,
    Am7         D7        G   Am7  G/B C G
and bring us at last into glo-ry.
