By the spirit an d a virgin's faith,
To the anguish and the shame of scandal,
Came the savior of the human race.
But the skies were filled
with the praise of heaven
Shepherds, listen as the angels tell
Of the gift of God come down to man
At the dawning of Em manuel
now the friend of sinners
Filled with power and the Holy Spirit
Filled with mercy for the broken man
Joys and sorrows that I know so well
I will follow my Em manuel
He was lifted on a cruel cross
He was suffering to save the lost
He fights for breath, He fights for me
Losing sinners from the claims of hell
And with a shout, our souls are free
Crowned with glory on the
Interceding for His own beloved
Then the skies will part as
Hope of heaven, oh, the fear of hell
But the bride will run to her
Yes, the skies will part as the
Hope of heaven, oh, the fear of hell
But the bride will run to her
