Tune: Veni Emmanuel
('O come, O come, Emmanuel')
Matthew 1 v.18-25 parts
**********
Now comes again season Advent
Jesus Christ from the Father sent
The Son of God, from ages long
Was promised, this the joyful song
Chorus
God's promise kept, His Son appears
Delivers from our sins and fears
Mary found to be with child, for
It be the virgin birth so pure
Joseph her husband to be, heart torn
Yet by the Spirit her child born - Chorus
For Mary would bring forth a son
All by the Spirit's working done
His name to be JESUS, Saviour
Blessings on all He would confer - Chorus
Would save His people from their sins
As His redemption dawn begins
Now all this done, that prophecy
Might be fulfilled, amen, so be - Chorus
The word was, Behold a virgin
Shall be with child, lowly within
And shall bring forth a Son, Him dear
Emmanuel, God with us here - Chorus
