At the end of this rundown Tennement Hall
Is the room of a girl I know
Who cowers behind all the dead bolt locks
Afraid of the outside world
So how should I come to the one I love
I will find a way
Many thieves and collectors have used that door
But they've only brought her shame
Now she won't even open it anymore
Still I will find a way
I could call out her name with love through the walls
But condemnation's all she hears
I could break down the wall
Take her into my arms
But she might die from the fear
So how should I come to the one that Iove
I will find a way
I will find a way
How should I come to the one I love
I will find a way
No hiding place ever kept her safe
So she hides inside herself
So to reach her heart the only way
Is to hide in there as well
So I will hide in there as well
Well she gave up on love
Waiting for a change
But a change is coming soon
Cause how could she not love helpless babe
That is waking in her womb
I found a way
I found a way
She will know I am coming
For I am here
When she hangs her head
She'll see me there
And then when I've come
She will not turn away
All the beauty and joy
Will return to her face
And what of that loneliness
Now it is gone
Lost in the bond of a mother and son
Every sin that she suffered
At the hands of men
Every single disgrace
Will be washed clean again
I will love her completely
And when I'm grown
I will carry her out of that Tennement room
I'm doing a new thing
Soon you will see
I'm coming amung you
And My name shall be
Emmanuel
Emmanuel
