Verse 1

When children play
On Christmas day
And snow is flung
When I feel I haven't
Had a friend
Since I was young
When I'm feeling tired
Of myself and everyone

Chorus

Lord remind me
Lord remind me
That the shepherds heard
The angels break the silence
In the field
That the wise men
Found a baby
And they could not
Help but kneel
That the One
Who heard our weeping
Became a child
In manger sleeping

Lord remind me
'Cause it's Christmas
And I want to remember

Verse 2

When I hear the news
And hear another war has begun
And I wonder if
God's on the side
Of either one
I hear bullet nail or handcuff
You bore all of them
And in the light
My heart's as dark
As anyone's

Chorus

Lord remind me
Lord remind me
That the shepherds heard
The angels break the silence
In the field
That the wise men
Found a baby
And they could not
Help but kneel
That the One
Who heard our weeping
Became a child
In manger sleeping

Bridge

So tell me how He loves me
Tell me how He wants me
Tell me the story like
I've never heard before
And I'll sing it
Like the angels sing it
With my whole heart sing it
To Him who's worth
A thousand songs and more

Refrain

Glory in the highest
Glory in the lowest
Glory that shines
When nothing seems
To shine at all
Glory in the highest
Glory in the lowest
Glory Emmanuel

Refrain

Glory in the highest
Glory in the lowest
Glory Emmanuel

Emmanuel

Chorus

Lord remind me
Lord remind me
That the paralytic rose
And stood up proud
On his own feet
That the thief who
Hung beside You
Is with You now
And waits for me
That the cry of faith
So simple
Is the greatest song
In Heaven's hymnal
