A Day of Welcoming

Blessings on the one

who brings new life to birth,

who brings goodness to our world,

who brings joy into our hearts,

who brings peace to the earth,

who brings hope to our despair,

The Saviour, the God who is with us,

We praise you Lord,

for the marvel of your care

for the joy of your presence,

for the gift of your peace this Christmas.

Amen.
