Emmanuel (Every Promise Yes in Him)
Lyrics
Verse 1:
Blessed seed of Abraham
Born the nations now to bless
Promised son of mother Eve
Come to crush the serpent’s head
Christ the sinless lamb of God
Every law in Him complete
Slain to ransom rebel hearts
Raised for us a great high priest
Chorus:
He is here, He is here!
Emmanuel, God draws near
At long last, He has come!
Emmanuel, the Promised One
Verse 2:
Isaiah’s servant suffering
By His wounds we are healed
Son of man in Daniel’s dream
Glorious myst’ry now revealed
King of kings on David’s throne
His rule and reign will never end
He will bring the exiles home
When His advent comes again
Chorus
Bridge
The one the prophets longed to know
(Emmanuel)
The first, the last, the cornerstone!
(Emmanuel)
Every promise finds its yes in Him!
Spirit with us til we sing this song again
Chorus (2x)
