Isaiah 9: 2, 6,7
The people walking in darkness
have seen a great light;
on those living in the land of deep darkness
a light has dawned.
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the greatness of his government and peace
there will be no end.
He will reign on David’s throne
and over his kingdom,
establishing and upholding it
with justice and righteousness
from that time on and for ever.
The zeal of the Lord Almighty
will accomplish this.
Lord Jesus Christ,
we prepare to welcome you again
the child of hope
born into our world;
come and lighten our darkness.
Where we need your wisdom
be our Wonderful Counsellor;
Where we have lost faith
be our Mighty God;
Where we feel unloved
be our Everlasting Father;
Where we live anxiously
be our Prince of Peace.
Come and govern our lives
that we may be led in ways of peace
harmony and good will to all people,
this Christmas time and always. AMEN
