Verse 1

Our God is living here on earth
From tents and temples to us, his church
He's always with us, Emmanuel
We trust his faithfulness each day
By cloud and fire He’ll lead the way
He loves his people; in our hearts he dwells

Chorus

Emmanuel
The spirit of our God is living in us
Now and forevermore
Almighty God
His presence with his people sure and steadfast
Our God is with us now, Emmanuel

Verse 2

Compelled by love God sent his Son
To be the hope for everyone
He rescues sinners to draw us near
For joy before him, he bore the cross
To be our ransom he paid sin's cost
His death brought victory, now his kingdom’s here
To chorus

Verse 3

Through every trial and joy of life
His faithful presence is our light
through pain and blessing, his love remains
There's nothing greater than our God
No power can tear us from his love
He's always with us, for all our days
To chorus

Bridge

He seeks and he saves us
He leads and he guides us
Never forsaking us, his bride
He carries and holds us
Empowers and equips us
By the spirit’s presence gives us life
2nd time E instead of C#

Emmanuel
