Loving Father,
Help us to
remember the birth of Jesus, that we may share in the song of the angels, the
gladness of the shepherds and the worship of the wise men.
Close the door
of hate and open the door of love all over the world. Let kindness come
with every gift, and good desires with every blessing. Deliver us from
evil by the blessing 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. Amen.
Robert Louis
Stevenson
