Maranata (Vem Emanuel)

Bruna Karla's 'Maranata (Vem Emanuel) Ao Vivo' is a powerful gospel song that calls for the divine presence of Emanuel, which is a name for Jesus Christ, meaning 'God with us'. The song is a plea for Jesus to return, a sentiment that is deeply rooted in Christian eschatology, the part of theology concerned with the final events of history, or the ultimate destiny of humanity, commonly referred to as the end of the world or the Second Coming of Christ.

The repeated phrase 'Rasga os céus e vem nos buscar' translates to 'Tear the skies and come to fetch us', which is a metaphorical way of asking for God to break through the heavens and return to Earth. The word 'Maranata' is an Aramaic phrase that means 'Our Lord, come!' and is used by Christians as a cry for the anticipated return of Jesus. The song reflects a longing for salvation and redemption, with the lyrics acknowledging God as the source of salvation and expressing a yearning for eternal life, which is referred to as 'our home'. The use of 'Hosana', a liturgical word in Judaism and Christianity, is an expression of praise and supplication for deliverance.

The mention of 'Cordeiro e o Leão', which means 'Lamb and Lion', symbolizes the dual nature of Christ as both the sacrificial lamb and the conquering lion, representing Jesus's role in redemption and his ultimate victory over evil. Bruna Karla's song is a worship anthem that encapsulates the Christian hope for the future and the belief in the transformative power of divine intervention.
