God Is With Us

The Em7skies don't seem to be as dark as Cusual;

The Em7stars seem brighter than they've been beCfore;

Em7Deep within, I feel my soul is Cstirring,

As Am7though my hope has Cbeen restored.

The shepherds say they've heard the voice of angels
Confirming rumors spread across the land:
That a child protected well from Herod's anger
Is our Father's Son, and the Son of Man.

Love is Em7raining down on the Cworld tonight;

There's a Em7presence here I can Ctell;

God is Em7in us, God is Cfor us, God is Am7with us, EmmanuGel.

He's the Em7Savior we have been Cpraying for

In our Em7humble hearts he will Cdwell:

God is Em7in us, God is Cfor us, God is Am7with us, EmmanuGel.

 

I feel compelled to tell all who will listen
That peace on earth is not so out of reach
If we can find grace and mercy and forgiveness:
He has come to save; He is all of these.
