In the beginning
You spoke, there was light
Your Word formed creation
Your breath gave us life
We walked in the garden
It brought you delight
How you love to be with us
We were fully alive
You have always been
You will always be
Emmanuel
Our fellowship broken
As we were deceived
The joy of the garden
Was now out of reach
You chose to pursue us
You longed for us still
You did not forsake us
And You never will
You have always been
You will always be
Emmanuel
A pillar of fire
That led through the night
The cloud of your glory
No one could deny
We built you a temple
But you wanted more
You long for a people
That could be called yours
You have always been
You will always be
Emmanuel
And then in the silence
The Word became flesh
Our God dwelt among us
You gave us your best
You offered communion
You gave up your life
You rose up in victory
And healed the divide
You have always been
You will always be
Emmanuel
Emmanuel
Emmanuel
The day is soon coming
You will be revealed
Your dream of communion
Finally fulfilled
We'll see a new heaven
We'll walk a new earth
You will be ours, Lord
And we will be Yours
You have always been
You will always be
Emmanuel
Emmanuel
Emmanuel
In this very moment
God you are here
You're with and within us
You love to be near
Filled with your Spirit
A promise of love
A blessed assurance
Of what is to come
You have always been
You will always be
Emmanuel
