Intro: G C G C 

verse 1 
D                                   C 
He was not the one we thought would come 
                      G 
We were looking for a King 
                      D 
But He didn't come in glory 
    D                            C 
The Author of the oceans and the sun 
                  G 
Still He chose to be 
               D 
Written in our story 

Pre-Chorus 
   Em           C    G         D 
So He could fill our flesh and blood 
    Em       C        D 
And we could know His love 

      G                       C 
Emmanuel, A manger for a bed 
                       Am 
No crown upon His head 
                   D 
He came like us instead 
      G                     C 
Emmanuel, He meets you where you are 
                   Am 
He holds your heavy heart 
               D 
Our God is with us all 
      G   C G   C 
Emmanuel 

verse 2 
D                         C 
It was no mistake that He arrived 
               G 
Lost wihtout a home 
              D 
Helpless as a baby 
D                                   C 
So if we're feeling lost in our own lives 
           G 
We are not alone 
               D 
He has felt the same thing 

Pre-Chorus 
  Em        C       G         D 
Because He lived in flesh and blood 
Em     C        D 
We can know His love 

      G                       C 
Emmanuel, A manger for a bed 
                       Am 
No crown upon His head 
                   D 
He came like us instead 
      G                     C 
Emmanuel, He meets you where you are 
                   Am 
He holds your heavy heart 
               D 
Our God is with us all 
      G   C 
Emmanuel

Emmanuel 

Bridge 
Em             C 
Oh what an invitation 
Em             C 
Oh His only expectation 
Em                                  C 
Is for us to come and offer Him our all 
Em                                     C 
To kneel before the child who shall be called 
 
      G                       C 
Emmanuel, A manger for a bed 
                       Am 
No crown upon His head 
                   D 
He came like us instead 
      G                     C 
Emmanuel, He meets you where you are 
                   Am 
He holds your heavy heart

Our God is with us all
