Immanuel
The Jesus, the Christ
The man, the God
The pain, the peace
The suffering, the glory
The message spoken
and the point of the story…
The voice rejected, the word that saves
The hunger, the food
The fall at the cross,
The Lord that withstood…
The clay, the potter
The dark, the light The death
the life The living water…
The root of David,
the son of God
He was beaten and humiliated
despised and abused
He offered salvation, despite the bruise…
Stripes that save,
transform and forgive
Consuming fire, new lives he gives…
He gives us a new home and calms the storms
New heaven, new earth,
a new world he forms…
His army, his nation
New body, new birth
A brand new creation,
the heirs are those
The children of the promise,
the children he chose…
To God, he is his pride Incredible wisdom,
his plans are divine
The word became man and dwelt among us
We are his children; the church is his bride…
He had our temptations, but lived to perfection
Rejected by nations, he paid for our transgressions
He is the son of God and Lord of lords
Who gives us living water from his living well
The resurrection and eternal life
Prince of peace, wonderful counselor
God is with us, He is Immanuel…
