Latin: O Emmanuel, Rex et legifer noster, expectatio gentium, et Salvator earum: veni ad salvandum nos, Domine, Deus noster.
English: O Emmanuel, king and lawgiver,
desire of the nations, Savior of all people, come and set us free, Lord our God.
Reflection: Isaiah had prophesied, “The Lord himself will give you this sign: the Virgin
shall be with child, and bear a son, and shall name him Emmanuel.” (7:14).
Remember “Emmanuel” means “God is with us.”
Reflection taken from Fr. William Saunders' post HERE.
