LUAL SERVICE BOOKLET - 2017

Light Up A Life
Hark, the herald angels sing glory to
the new-born King. Peace on earth and
mercy mild, God and Sinners reconciled:
Joyful all ye nations rise, join the triumph
of the skies, with th’angelic host proclaim,
‘Christ is born in Bethlehem.’
Hark! The herald-angels sing, “glory
to the new-born King.”
Christ, by highest heav’n adored, Christ,
the everlasting Lord, late in time behold
him come, offspring of a virgin’s womb!
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see, hail, th’
incarnate Deity! Pleased as man with us
to dwell, Jesus, our Emmanuel.
Hark! The herald-angels sing, “glory
to the new-born King.”
Hail, the heaven-born Prince of peace!
Hail, the son of righteousness! Light and
life to all he brings, ris’n with healing in
his wings; mild he lays his glory by, born
that we no more may die, born to raise us
from the earth, born to give us second
birth.
Hark! The herald-angels sing, “glory
to the new-born King.”

AN ADVENT PRAYER
May this holy Advent season
Bring joy to your heart,
A joy the world cannot give;
A joy to uplift you
When your spirits feel low;
A joy to refresh you
When your life feels weary;
A joy to sustain you
When your days feel empty;
The joy of knowing
That the lord is with you
This Christmas,
And always.
Amen
