Loving Father, help us to remember
the Birth of Jesus,
that we might share in the
song of the angels,
the gladness of the Shepards,
and the worship of the Wise Men.
Close the door of hate
and open the door of love
all over the World.
Lert kindness come with every gift,
and good desires with every greeting.
Deliver us from evil by the
blessings which Christ brings,
and teach us to be merry
with clear hearts.
May the Christmas Morning
make us happy to be Thy Children,
and the Christmas Evening
bring us to our beds
with grateful thoughts, forgiving and
forgiven for Jesus Sake.
