This Christmas hymn comes to us from the 12th century, when it was sung in Latin. Emmanuel, the Bible tells us, means “God with us.” And how we need Him with us!
O Lord Our God! Bless this Christmas season, and give it power to bring us back to Jesus Christ our only Savior. Amen.
I have always loved this sacred song. Didn’t know it was so old – it is timeless!
It certainly applies to 2017.
