Just because introducing new songs at Christmas time is hard work doesn’t mean I don’t like listening to them.
Apparently I haven’t said much about All Sons & Daughters. (Probably because they don’t sell their music for download via a service that I like.)
Male and female duo voice folk/roots seems to be a popular genre at the moment, and All Sons & Daughters‘ David Leonard and Leslie Norman are as accomplished as any, both in song writing and rendition. They have an album called Season One, a compilation of two EPs, and a live album to their credit.
They’re commending God With Us as a new song which is seasonally appropriate.
Verse 1
You’ve come to bring peace, to be Love
To be nearer to us
You’ve come to bring life, to be Light
To shine brighter in us
Pre-Chorus
Oh Emmanuel
God with us
Chorus 1
Our Deliverer, You are Savior
In Your presence we find our strength
Over ev’rything, our Redemption
God with us
You are God with us
Verse 2
Oh You’ve come to be hope to this world
For Your honor and name
And You’ve come to take sin, to bear shame
And to conquer the grave
Pre-Chorus
Oh Emmanuel God with us
(BRIDGE)
You are here
You are holy
We are standing in Your glory (Lord)
(REPEAT)
