You were there in the beginning You will be there in the end In the dark, a light is shining Son of God and son of man Since we turned and went our own way It's been a dark, cold, night But you came just like You promised And we beheld Your light When you came down When you came down In you my joy and hope is found You heard my cry and You came down Emmanuel You became your own creation Born that we may never die And with the sound of angels singing Glory to the Lord most high With this plan of reconciliation Heaven and earth collide The perfect treasure of the nations Found in a humble life
