To the tune:
“I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day”

It’s been a long and fearsome year
The covid pandemic has brought.
So many lives have been cut short,
Despite the battle they have fought.

We grieve, we mourn, we question why.
Oh God, have You abandoned us?
Yet in the darkness shines a light.
We must look up and choose to trust.

Immanuel, God is with us.
He came and He will come again,
And while we wait we’re not alone.
His Spirit with us will remain.

Strength for each day He has promised.
Upon His Word we can depend.
He knows, He understands our plight.
He is our Saviour and our friend.
