This was the finale in our Christmas program this past Sunday and has a little more to the song than Carolla listed. This was an arrangment by Russell Mauldin and is in a musical entitled EMMANUEL Celebrating Heaven's Child. A ready to sing Christmas created by Joel Lindsey and arranged and orchestrated by Russell Mauldin.The book is published by Brentwood-Benson Music Publishing, Inc. Our choir has sung several cantatas published by this company. This particular cantata is very beautiful. Now for the words. (I will add the 2nd part of the finale which isn't part of this song, but adds to it so much. I'll change the title so you will know when that part begins.)
JESUS, WHAT A WONDERFUL CHILD
Jesus, Jesus, oh, what a wonderful child.
Jesus, Jesus, so lowly, meek and mild.
New life, new hope, new joy He brings,
Won't you listen to the angels sing?
Glory, glory, glory to the newborn King!
Jesus, Jesus, oh what a wonderful child.
Jesus, Jesus, so lowly, meek and mild.
New life, new hope, new joy He brings,
Won't you listen to the angels sing?
Glory, glory, glory to the newborn King!
He was heralded by the angels,
Born in a lowly manger,
The virgin Mary was His mother,
And Joseph was His earthly father.
The wise men came from afar.
They were guided by a shining star
To see King Jesus where He lay
In a manger filled with hay.
Jesus, Jesus, oh, what a wonderful child.
Jesus, Jesus, so lowly meek and mild.
New life, new hope, new joy He brings,
Won't you listen to the angels sing?
Glory, glory, glory to the newborn King!
Glory, glory, glory to the newborn King.
EMMANUEL (by Bob McGee)
Emmanuel, Emmanuel, Emmanuel,
His name is called Emmanuel.
God with us, revealed in us.
His name is called Emmanuel.
God with us, revealed in us.
His name is called Emmanuel
Emmanuel! Emmanuel!
