Stream AmisarSATB setting by Carson Cooman, organist at Rochester NY.The words are by Joseph Proud (1745-1826).
Carson wrote this setting "for Marisa, Christmas 2003".
Down from the worlds of radiant light, behold the Saviour come,
To ransom souls from endless night and bring the wanderers home.
He calls us to his dear embrace from misery and despair
Bids us receive his wondrous grace and seek salvation there
We come Emmanuel at thy call, believe thy gladdening word
Renounce our sins, ourselves, our all, and glory in our Lord
Salvation to Messiah's name, with grateful hearts we sing
And join our voices to proclaim our Saviour and our King
Immortal praise to God belongs for such unfathomed love
Join, all below, in rapturous songs and shout you hosts above.
