Joseph was a carpenter and Mary was a girl
Joseph worked long hours for her
And heart was made of pearl
Hard work, love and tenderness
Where the qualities of their hearts
That’s when God decided he’d found the home
That is only son would be a part of
Then came Jesus, Emmanuel
Peace that passes understanding
Love that knows no end
Then came suffering, shame, and rejection oh
How could it ever be?
For a baby boy, full of love and joy
From the home of eternity
Joseph was a carpenter and Mary was his wife
Joseph worked with Jesus
Wood and Work, where all their lives
Jesus grew to be a man
He knew miracles day by day
And when Mary would look at her son, Jesus
This is what she’d say
Then came Jesus, Emmanuel
Peace that passes understanding
Love that knows no end
Then came suffering, shame, and rejection oh
How could it ever be?
For a baby boy, full of love and joy
From the home of eternity
Jesus came, He lived, He died,
To take away our sins
So on that cross and for the world
Oh let us trust in Him
Then came Jesus, Emmanuel
Peace that passes understanding
Love that knows no end
Then came suffering, shame, and rejection oh
How could it ever be?
For a baby boy, full of love and joy
From the home of eternity
