Come oh Lord from heaven to this earth
Come incarnate God in humble birth
Come to condescend and put on flesh
Come to lie within a dirty creche
Come only to do your Father’s will
Come to see the Kingdom now fulfilled
Come to make an end to death and sin
Come to see new life in us begin
Christ in us, Christ for us
Emmanuel, come to your people to dwell
Come to be the sin bearer for men
Come to make atonement for our sin
Come to see us enriched by your loss
Come to be forsaken on the cross
Christ in us, Christ for us
Emmanuel, come to your people to dwell
Come and be the mystery revealed
Come to place the Holy Spirit’s seal
Come oh Lord your people to indwell
Sanctify our souls- then it is well.
Christ in us, Christ for us
Emmanuel, come to your people to dwell
Christ in us, Christ for us
Emmanuel, come to your people to dwell
