1. We’re not alone, for Christ is here Immanuel our God come near We’re not alone, for to our world Jesus has come, eternal Word. And as he speaks, our souls laid bare Naked, ashamed, sin is made clear And yet he clothes us in his love Never alone, Christ is with us, is with us.
2. The longest walk, earth’s darkest day The pressing crowd, his mounting pain. A heavy load of grief and shame Breathless that we should breathe again. “Father forgive them,” comes his cry Silence from God blackens the sky. A creeping dread in every heart Lost in the world now God departs, God departs.
3. The dawn will come, the sun will rise Out of the grave we’ll see hope’s light. Tomb opened wide, stone rolled away Morning has come, a brand new day. “He isn’t here,” the angel said. “He is alive no longer dead.” Our hearts are lifted, souls raised high Christ is with us, Christ is our life, he’s our life.
4. Never alone, is now our cry In joy, in grief, in lonely sin. Never alone, for Christ is ours He lives in us, we live in him. And ’til we reach that final day When fears are gone, cast far away We'll live secure, trust in his love, Never alone, Christ is with us, he’s with us.
