Hannah Kerr's song Emmanuel is about the birth of Jesus Christ and the significance of his coming to earth. The lyrics describe how Jesus did not come as the king that people were expecting, but chose to be born in a manger and live among humans. The song emphasizes that Jesus came to understand and empathize with human suffering, and to offer love and hope to those who are lost and hurting. The chorus repeats the name "Emmanuel," which means "God with us" in Hebrew. This title is used in the Bible to describe Jesus as the embodiment of God's presence and love among humanity. The song reminds listeners that Jesus meets them where they are, holding their heavy hearts and offering comfort and peace. The bridge of the song invites listeners to come to Jesus and offer him their all, kneeling before the child who is called Emmanuel. The song celebrates the unity and closeness that is possible through the presence of God in our lives, and encourages listeners to find comfort and hope in Jesus Christ.
