    Theology - Christology: Prayer for Christmas Eve

    [Print] | [PDF] | [Email]

    This night is different, O Lord, from all nights.  On this night, You opened the womb of the virgin Mary, so that she brought forth the seed of the woman, the new Isaac, the firstborn of Israel, David’s Son, Immanuel.  On this night, Your Word, the eternal Light that lightens every man, began to shine from within our flesh.

    Therefore, let the sea roar and all it contains, the world and those who dwell in it. Let the rivers clap their hands. Let the mountains sing together for joy before the LORD.

    For You have come to judge the earth; You judge the world with righteousness, and You will judge the peoples with equity.

    Amen.
