Eliza Gilkyson - Emmanuel
INTRO: C F C Am G C F C
F C
When at first I came into this land
Am G F
In the highlands I did dwell
C F C
Where ancient winged masters taught
Am G F C
The depths of wisdom's well
F C
Emmanuel, he walked with me
Am G F
And secrets he did share
C F C
The order of the swirling stars
Am G F C
The laws of earth and air
Am C
The golden pipes of heaven
Em F
He entrusted in my care
C G C F
And I sang of the mercy of
G C
Emmanuel
F C
In time I went a-wandering
Am G F
Into the world of man
C F C
And though I knew the sacred songs
Am G F C
My separate dreams began
Am C
And when I thought the pipes were mine
Em F
My eyes grew blind as well
C G C F
My soul from heights of heaven fell
G C
Emmanuel
Am
Slumbering, sleeping
Slipping through seasons of silent night
F
The servant, the snake
The soldier, a storm
Dm Em
A poet, a mother
F
A child stillborn
F G
A rock, a star
Am
A drunk in a bar
How many more times, dancing the skin dance
Sorting the systems of violence, romance
F
Sobbing the sorrow, walking the wheel
Em
Hiding the horror, fighting the feel
F G Am
Pushing the wheel, like a rock up a hill
G
Until, until, until
C F C
I’m drawn so slowly step by step
Am G F
Out of this darkened place
C F C
So unaccustomed to the light
Am G F C
So wary of its grace
Am C
Oh, how I long to hear the pipes
Em F
I held before I fell
C G C F
And sing the ancient songs of love
G C
Emmanuel
CHOIR INTERLUDE:
G C G F C
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
F C
From out of dreams awakening
Am G F
It seems ten thousand years
C F C
Since I beheld my true love's face
Am G F C
And cried these cleansing tears
Am C
The songs returning one by one
Em F
Out of my memory's well
C G C F
How can I lay them at your feet
G C
Emmanuel?
C G C
Can I lay them at your feet
F G F C
Emmanuel?
