Celebrate Immanuel’s name

Verse 1
Celebrate Immanuel’s name,
The Prince of life and peace!
God with us our lips proclaim,
Our faithful hearts confess:
God is in our flesh reveal’d,
Earth and heaven in Jesus join,
Mortal with Immortal fill’d,
And human with Divine.

Verse 2
Fulness of the Deity
In Jesus’ body dwells,
Dwells in all his saints and me,
When God his Son reveals:
Father, manifest thy Son,
And conscious of th’ incarnate Word
In our inmost souls make known
The Presence of the Lord.

Verse 3
Let the Spirit of our Head
Thro’ every member flow,
By our Lord inhabited
We then Immanuel know,
Then he doth his name express,
And God-in-us we truly prove,
Fill’d with all the life of grace,
And all the power of love.

He later added the other verses in his unpublished 1766 manuscript “MS Matthew.” This manuscript is part of the collection of the Methodist Archive and Research Centre in The John Rylands Library, The University of Manchester (accession number MA 1977/577, Charles Wesley Notebooks Box 3).
