My Sweet Immanuel

I had long lived in the darkness, in the land of the dead,
Living like a madman, with all this screaming in my head,
Bound by chains of sin and sorrow, forged by the flames of Hell,
Blinded by the darkness till He came, My sweet Immanuel.

And the only way you find peace is through the one with the nail scarred hands,
And all the treasures that you vainly seek are only found in one man,
And the darkness that we live in can be forgiven by the Lamb,
No longer blinded by the darkness My sweet Immanuel.

The serpent had clearly spoken and to my shame, I had given him my life,
All the promises that he made were all broken, every one in due time,
Acting like the Whore that I was, and like a drunkard with his wine,
I was blinded by the darkness till He came, My sweet Immanuel.

And the only way you find peace is through the one with the nail scarred hands,
And all the treasures that you vainly seek are only found in one man,
And the darkness that we live in can be forgiven by the Lamb,
No longer blinded by the darkness My sweet Immanuel.

I still can’t believe His Grace shown to this Child of Hell,
The chains that once had bound me, because of His blood no longer dwell,
The darkness has been vanquished and now I can clearly see,
No longer blinded by the darkness since He came, My sweet Immanuel.

And the only way you find peace is through the one with the nail scarred hands,
And all the treasures that you vainly seek are only found in one man,
And the darkness that we live in can be forgiven by the Lamb,
No longer blinded by the darkness, My sweet Immanuel,
Yes, I am no longer blinded by the darkness because of My sweet Immanuel. 
(ISAIAH 7:14)
Yes, I am no longer blinded by the darkness because of My sweet Immanuel.
