Brother, may the Lord be with you
Like a shepherd in the field
Giving you the meaning of Immanuel.
May that mean the whole world to you,
God's world ever given to you,
Blessing you no matter where you are.
Sister, may a world of peace be
With you everywhere you go,
Everywhere the meaning of Immanuel.
May it mean that God will hold you
Like a mother holds her child who
Looks into the eyes of loving care.
Refrain:
And may God's face shine upon you
With an everlasting smile,
Giving you the meaning of Immanuel.
May you know that God is with you everywhere.
(We will draw near.)
May you know that God is with you everywhere.
(We will draw near.)
Immanuel!
Immanuel!
(Repeat Refrain)
Child, may the grace of God be
Something you will come to know
Living in the meaning of Immanuel.
As you wander through the fold and
Grow beyond the mother's hold, may
You still know you are a child of God.
(Repeat Refrain)
May the hands of the father bless you.
(Immanuel!)
May the arms of the mother keep you.
(Immanuel!)
May the face of God shine on you.
(Immanuel!)
May the grace of the Lord go with you.
(Immanuel!)
May the peace of the world be in you.
(Immanuel!)
May you know God is always with you.
Immanuel!
Immanuel!
