GRAMMY award winner Chris Tomlin released his new Christmas album, Emmanuel: Christmas Songs of Worship.
Off the 12-song project produced by Ed Cash which is now available in stores and digitally is the song titled Emmanuel God With Us.
“I have always been inspired by ‘Christmas classics.’ Songs like “O Come All Ye Faithful” and “O Holy Night” that have been passed down for generations. These were all songs that were not written to be Christmas classics but as worship songs for the church,” shared Chris. “When it came time to do this album, I wanted to capture songs that remind us of the true meaning of Christmas. Emmanuel, God with us. If there was ever a time that we needed to be reminded that God is with us, it is now and that is the spirit behind this third Christmas record. My prayer is that God uses these songs to touch lives for generations and reminds us that He is close to us.”

Lyrics:
Go tell it on the mountain
The one that we’ve been waiting for
The king of our salvation
Born on this day our savior Christ the Lord
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
That we can be forgiven
The weight of all our sin He came to bear
Emmanuel, God with us
Emmanuel, King Jesus
The Savior of the world is born
Emmanuel, God with us
Emmanuel, King Jesus
The Savior of the world is born
Go tell it on the mountain
Humbly in a manger lay
Mercy sent from heaven
Angels fill the sky with highest praise
Go tell it on the mountain
this baby born of virgin birth
The ruler of all nations
The glory of our God has come to earth
