"And she shall bring forth a Son, and thou shalt call His name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins. Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with Child, and shall bring forth a Son, and they shall call His name EMMANUEL, which being interpreted is, God with us" (Matthew 1:21-23).
Emmanuel, that wondrous name
Describing Christ our Lord,
Declares the reason why He came,
And what He looked toward.
God with us! Emmanuel!
We praise the name of Jesus,
Who died to save our souls from hell
And be forever with us.
