O Emmanuel
O Emmanuel, our king and our lawgiver,the hope of the nations and their Saviour:
Come and save us, O Lord our God.
Based on the famous prophecy of Isaiah 7:14, the title Emmanuel is the key to the mystery of incarnation.
The symbol is the virgin with the child in the manger. It is not just any child, but the promised salvation of the God of the universe, the king who has come to meet his subjects to make them co-heirs to his throne.
