Eventide

[Verse 1]
I guess I never knew
How dark was the world I was born into
'Til I cross the ocean and I met you
You poor, forgotten girl
'Cause in that little village church
It was holy ground where you sat in the dirt
You said so much without saying a word
You poor, forgotten girl

[Pre-Chorus]
I saw your eyes
Light up at His name

[Chorus]
Emmanuel
Emmanuel
Emmanuel, You are the light
You are the light at eventide

[Verse 2]
Second floor, room 32
Your friend was alone in that hospital room
The darkness inside of that whitewashed tomb
Was an unwelcome burden
And we all know life can hit hard
And sorrow can feel likе a stab in the heart
It aches as it hеals
But time will reveal the purpose

[Pre-Chorus]
And darkness feels heavy
But the promise remains

[Chorus]
Oh Emmanuel
Emmanuel
Emmanuel, You are the light
You are the light at eventide

[Bridge]
Oh, Holy blessed trinity
Darkness is not dark with Thee
Those You keep will always see the light
Oh, Holy blessed trinity
Darkness is not dark with Thee
Those You keep will always see the light

[Chorus]
Oh Emmanuel
Emmanuel
Emmanuel, we need Your light
You are the light at eventide
