I love this song, both musically and the message of it too. I started just messing around with a piano track inspired by the beautiful piano part in the original, but then decided marimba might sound cool for the melody. From there it turned more cinematic than I was planning with the strings and percussion.
I had an idea for a video a few days before Christmas, but having never done something similar, I wasn’t sure I could pull it off in such a short time. It was a challenge having to film everything by myself, and also a bit of a mind puzzle trying to piece everything together, but it all turned out okay. Definitely one of the most time-consuming projects I’ve done! Hopefully it’s encouraging to someone, and points back to Jesus, the center of Christmas :) I’d encourage you to read the words below if you’re not familiar with the original song…

Thanks to my mom for thinking of using the Christmas wreath which added a nice touch, and for helping me set up. And credit to Justin for hitting the pause button and turning on the wreath lights :)
Lyrics:
The world waits for a miracle
The heart longs for a little bit of hope
Oh come, oh come, Emmanuel
A child prays for peace on Earth
And she's calling out from a sea of hurt
Oh come, oh come, Emmanuel
And can you hear the angels singing
Glory to the light of the world
Glory the light of the world is here
The drought breaks with the tears of a mother
A baby's cry is the sound of love
Come down, come down, Emmanuel
Oh, He is the song for the suffering
He is Messiah, the Prince of Peace has come
He has come, Emmanuel
Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world
For all who wait
For all who hunger
For all who've prayed
For all who wonder
Behold your King
Behold Messiah
Emmanuel, Emmanuel
Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world
Glory to the light of the world
The world waits for the miracle
The heart longs for a little bit of hope
Oh come, oh come Emmanuel
