lyrics

Heaven breaking in
Our Emmanuel
Cold and starry night
Then the angels tell

Fear not, fear not

For a Saviour's come to you
He is Christ the Lord
You shall find him wrapped in swaddling cloths
And lying in a manger

Away in a manger
Let the Christ child in
Away in a manger
Let him free you from all sin

God became a man
Such a mystery
With us he came to dwell
He says to you and me

Fear not, fear not

For a Saviour's come to you
He is Christ the Lord
You shall him in my people
You shall find him in the streets
You shall see him in their laughter
In the bitter and the sweet

Away in a manger
Let the Christ child in
Away in a manger
Let him free you from all sin

Oh come Emmanuel (8x)

Oh come, oh come Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears

Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel, shall come to thee, Oh Israel

Oh come thou Dayspring, come and cheer
Our spirits by thine Advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death's dark shadow put to flight

Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel, shall come to thee, Oh Israel

Oh come, Desire of nations, bind
All peoples in one heart and mind
Did envy, strife, and quarrel cease
Fill the whole world with Heaven's peace

Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel, shall come to thee, Oh Israel

Oh come Emmanuel (8x)

Away in a manger
Let the Christ Child in
Away in a manger
Let him free from all sins
