Michael W. Smith's 'God with God' is a worship song that reflects on the mystery of the Trinity and the incarnation of Jesus Christ. The lyrics contrast the eternal fellowship of God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in heaven with the miraculous moment of Christ's birth, when God became 'God with us.' The song emphasizes the fulfillment of God's promise to dwell among humanity, celebrating the wonder and grace of Christmas. It invites listeners to marvel at the divine love that led to the Savior's arrival, making it a fitting piece for Advent and Nativity celebrations.

God with God in highest heaven
Long before the dawn of time
Pure and perfect, ageless union
Trinity, complete, divine
God with God from the beginning
Satisfied and with no need
Face to face in fellowship
As uncreated deity
Then one holy chosen midnight
Something wild and wondrous
God with God in highest heaven
Suddenly now, God with us
As he promised, God with us
God with God before the time when
Shepherds heard the angels sing
God with God before the moment
Mary held her child, the king
Then one holy chosen midnight
Something wild and wondrous
God with God in highest heaven
Suddenly now, God with us
As he promised, God with us
Oh what glory, oh what goodness
This great gift of grace and love
God with God in highest heaven
Suddenly now, God with us
As he promised, God with us
