Mountains bow
Storms back down
At the mention of your name
You came down
Left your crown
With a heart to make me great
You are faithful God
You're the all consuming one
Emmanuel
You are gracious
Slow to anger
Rich in love
Compassionate
You are faithful
God with us
God with us
Hope abounds
Grace astounds
The cross victorious
Darkness hides
From your light
Salvations come to us
You are faithful God
You're the all consuming one
Emmanuel
You are gracious
Slow to anger
Rich in love
Compassionate
You are faithful
God with us
God with us
Emmanuel
You are gracious
Slow to anger
Rich in love
Compassionate
You are faithful
God with us
God with us
So faithful, you are God
With all my grace, in every boast
I will declare you are my Lord
Nothing compares to the promise found in You
With all my grace in every boast
I will declare you are my Lord
Nothing compares to the promise found in You
Emmanuel
You are gracious
Slow to anger
Rich in love
Compassionate
You are faithful
God with us
God with us
Emmanuel
You are gracious
Slow to anger
Rich in love
Compassionate
You are faithful
God with us
God with us
So faithful you are God
