point of grace – emmanuel, god with us lyrics
she lit a candle in a downtown cathedral
quietly confessing, counting all her blessings
she looked as if she had nowhere to go
i could see her weeping
hands together hoping you would hear…
this is the time of year
we hold our families near
but god let us be a friend to the hurting
oh emmanuel, god with us
spirit revealed in us
that we may be your hope to the world
oh emmanuel, god with us
with a light to break the darkness
that we may show your hope to the world
emmanuel, god with us
i moved in closer just so i could see her face
maybe she was a mother
someone’s only daughter
her silver hair shimmered like the snow
christmas bells were ringing
now beside her kneeling i asked her name
(and she said)
this was the time of year
i had my family near
but they’ve all gone and i have been so lonely
oh emmanuel, god with us
spirit revealed in us
that we may be your hope to the world
oh emmanuel, god with us
with a light to break the darkness
that we may show your hope to the world
emmanuel, god with us
so with my family that christmas day
a girl of sixty years would laugh and play
and as we watched her dance our eyes were full of tears…
