A Prayer from the Church of England

christmas

God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Whose years never fail

And whose mercies are new each returning day;

Let the radiance of your Spirit renew our lives,

Warming our hearts and giving light to our minds;

That we may pass the coming year

In joyful obedience and firm faith;

Through him who is the beginning and the end,

Your Son, Christ our Lord,

Who is alive and reigns with you,

In the unity of the Holy Spirit

One God, now and forever.

Amen
