Emmanuel
The Katinas Lyrics

The song "Emmanuel" by The Katinas is a sacred piece that exalts the name of Jesus Christ. The main subject of the song is the titular Emmanuel which is a Hebrew name that translates to "God is with us". The song repeats the name of Emmanuel four times at the start to emphasize the importance of the name. The song goes on to describe Emmanuel as a Wonderful Counselor, Lord of Life, Lord of All, Prince of Peace, Mighty God, and Holy One. These descriptions reflect the different attributes of Jesus Christ that make him worthy of worship and adoration.

The use of different sobriquets for Jesus helps the audience understand the nature of Jesus while also providing them with different names they can use to pray. Jesus is Emmanuel, someone that is always with us, the Wonderful Counselor that gives us wisdom, the Lord of Life that gives us eternal life, the Prince of Peace that gives us peace, the Mighty God that is more powerful than anything and the Holy One that forgives and sanctifies us. The heavenly lyrics of this song uplift the mind and soul, allowing the listener to feel closer to God.
