Second Advent - Peace
Fear not, oh, Israel for there is peace still to come
Words to break the silence, a promise set to bloom
The promise to redeem us, one to free us
Break this silence in the violence in our lives
Emmanuel is sure to find us soon
The mighty rule to Jesse's star of truth
And bring us all to glory, tell His story
Heal the broken and restore them to His name
The star will guide us to the humble place
Where Christ the King reveals His earthly face
And we will see Emmanuel, God is with us.
God is for us, God is in us, we will see
We're singing Hallelujah
We're singing Hallelujah
Emmanuel, our God is with us
Composed and written by Michael W. Smith and son Ryan Smith
Although this video is taken from the Internet, it is one of the pieces I appreciated
hearing at the concert last week . . . beautiful music and words of promise, not only for the time of our Saviour's birth but for today as well. Emmanuel is probably one of my favorite names for Jesus . . . it means God with us . . . there is wonderful peace in that truth.

This was one of my favorites from the concert last week; I had not heard it before, but it was so moving. Thanks for sharing it.
