SIXTEENTH DAY OF ADVENT






Monday, December 14, 2009

Surely God is my salvation;
I will trust, and will not be afraid…
Shout aloud and sing for joy, O royal Zion,
for great in our midst is the Holy One of Israel.
Isaiah 12: 2a, 6

Read Isaiah 12: 2-6

This week we rejoice; we rejoice in the promised coming of our Lord; we rejoice in the changes we are making. The glory of the Lord shines forth; we must just look.

Shout aloud! Sing for joy! Be not afraid! Today we sing:
God is our strong sal - va - tion
(music above)
or
“Joy to the world! the Lord is come: Let earth receive her King; Let every heart prepare Him room, And heaven and nature sing, And heaven and nature sing, And heaven, and heaven and nature sing.”
(#40, vs.1)

Sing all day long of the works of your God. At eventide fall asleep in the arms of the One who comes.

God of glory, God of might, be among us. Come to us; come to our world. Let our songs of praise fill the rooms, fill the byways, fill the air. Let your ways be our ways. Amen.
