Christmas Eve
Good news! Good news!
Our hopes and fears and all of years
have met in this place tonight.
And we have beheld the glory of the coming of God’s Messiah.
Sing for joy! Salvation has come!
Light the Christ Candle
We light the Christ candle as a sign to the world
that today, in the City of David, a Savior is born,
who is Christ the Lord.
We no longer have to fear the darkness
for our Light has come.
Glory to God in the highest heaven!
And on earth, peace to all of God’s children!
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Amen.
