[Intro]
D  G  D  G  D
DFrom the squalor of a boGrrowed sAtableD,
By the spirit and a vGirgin's fAaith;
DTo the anguish and the sGhame of sAcandal
DCame the Saviour of the hGuman raDce!
DBut the skGies were fDilled, with the praGise of heBmav'n,
F#mShepherds liDsten as the aAngels tell
Of the GGift of DGod, come dGown to mBman
GAt the dDawning of ImmAanuelD  
[Instrumental]
D  G   A
DKing of heaven now the FGriend of AsinnDers,
Humble servant in the GFather's Ahands,
DFilled with power and thGe Holy SpAirit,
DFilled with mercy for the Gbroken Dman
DYes he walGked my rDoad, and He Gfelt my pBmain,
F#mJoys and sorDrows that I kAnow so well;
Yet His Grighteous Dsteps, give me Ghope agBmain -
GI will fDollow my ImmaAnuel!D  
[Instrumental]
D   G    A  D  G  A
DThrough the kisses of a Gfriend's AbetrDayal,
He was lifted on a crGuel crossA;
DHe was punished for a woGrld's traAnsgressions,
DHe was suffering to save Gthe losDt
DHe Gfights for Dbreath, He Gfights foBmr me
F#mLoosing sinnDers from the Aclaims of hell;
And wGith a sDhout, our sGouls are Bmfree -
GDeath deDfeated by ImmAanuelD!
[Instrumental]
D G A D G A
DNow He's standing in the Gplace of AhonDour,
Crowned with glory on Gthe highAest throne,
DInterceding for His Gown belAoved
DTill His Father calls to Gbring thDem home!
DThen the sGkies will Dpart, as the Gtrumpet sBmounds
F#mHope of heavDen or the Afear of hell;
But the GBride wDill run, to her GLover's Bmarms,
GGiving gDlory to AImmanDuel!
DThen the sGkies will Dpart, as the Gtrumpet sBmounds
F#mHope of heavDen or the Afear of hell;
But the GBride wDill run, to her GLover's Bmarms,
GGiving gDlory to AImmanDuel!
