(Verse 1) Beyond the echo of the "Ho Ho Ho," Past the drummer boy in the silver snow, We’ve hushed the message, we’ve dimmed the light, Of the holiest roar in the silent night. It wasn’t a fable or a fleeting phrase, But the hinge of history, the Ancient of Days. The greatest announcement the earth has known: The King has descended to claim His own! (Chorus) Merry Christmas! Let the news be new! Immanuel—God is here with you! Not a holiday ghost or a story on a shelf, But the Living God giving us Himself. Joy immeasurable, faith set free, This isn’t a tradition, it’s reality! (Verse 2) From the first breath drawn to the empty grave, You walked the path of the souls You save. While we tweak our doctrines and chase our pride, You’re calling the weary to step inside. Why bow to the master of an algorithm’s art, When the Spirit is knocking on the human heart? Break every chain of the digital sway, Lead us, O Master, in Your ancient way. (Bridge) Come again, Lord Jesus, just like You said, Wake the sleeping and raise the dead! In Spirit and power, let Your glory fall, The Harvest is ripe, we can hear the call. The fields are aching for a change that’s true, Renew our minds, make our spirits new. Undeniable presence, effective grace, We’re desperate to see You face to face! (Chorus) Merry Christmas! Let the news be new! Immanuel—God is here with you! Not a holiday ghost or a story on a shelf, But the Living God giving us Himself. Joy immeasurable, faith set free, This isn’t a tradition, it’s reality! (Outro) We Love You, God, in the here and now, To the Name of names, every knee shall bow. More than a season, more than a day, The Savior is with us—He’s here to stay! Immanuel! (Merry Christmas!)
