The world waits for a miracle
The heart longs for a little bit of hope
Oh come, oh come, Emmanuel

A child prays for peace on earth
And she's calling out from a sea of hurt
Oh come, oh come, Emmanuel

And can you hear the angels singing
Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world
He is here

The drought breaks with the tears of a mother
A baby's cry is the sound of love
Come down, come down, Emmanuel

He is the song for the suffering
He is messiah, the prince of peace has come
He has come, Emmanuel

Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world

For all who wait
For all who hunger
For all who've prayed
For all who wonder
Behold your king
Behold messiah
Emmanuel, Emmanuel

Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world

Behold your king
Behold messiah
Emmanuel, Emmanuel

The world waits for a miracle
The heart longs for a little bit of hope
Oh come, oh come Emmanuel
