R. God’s own Son
Came down from heaven.
He is called Emmanuel.
God’s own Son
Came down from heaven.
Alleluia !
1. Jesus Christ, You are our Saviour.
Son of God and king eternal.
As a man, You came to save us. You are God with us.
2. Jesus when You came among us,
You were placed into a manger.
Stripped of all your heav’nly glory, You are God with us.
3. God from God and light from true light.
Truly one with God the Father,
With no end, with no beginning, He is God with us.
4. Jesus is the light to follow.
Shining forth for all the nations
Jesus takes away our worries, He is God with us.
5. When our hearts are feeling heavy,
Burdened with life’s care and worries
Jesus, You are there to lead us, You are God with us.
