Come, Immanuel

Darkness hides when light  appears, pain recedes when comfort nears; soul is freed when soul bleeds tears, Come, Immanuel. Baptise earth with heaven’s light, comfort  us with wrongs made right, wash our tears, restore our sight, Come, Immanuel.

Darkness hides when light  appears,

pain recedes when comfort nears;

soul is freed when soul bleeds tears,

Come, Immanuel.

Baptise earth with heaven’s light,

comfort  us with wrongs made right,

wash our tears, restore our sight,

Come, Immanuel.

    Does that come with music? I just sang it to my own funny little tune. It would make a great hymn.

      🙂 I do write music and lyrics, but haven’t for a while – I should try it! You’re the second one to mention that this might be the start of a song…

      Thank you so much! It is so strange for me to think of myself as a photographer, but I am enjoying adding that title to my portfolio, and look forward to learning more and more as I go! 🙂
