While We Wait

More to be done
To spread the good news
Love come into the world
While we wait
Expectantly for the Christ-child
More to do
To prepare his way
Opening hearts
In the story of the Christ
Love come down from heaven
Nothing will be the same

Prayer of Dedication,
by Reverend Huntley Halvorson,
“Loving God, we eagerly anticipate the joy-filled
celebration of Jesus’ birthday party. We hear again the
news of peace on earth and good will to all. So we offer
these gifts to you; so that the good news of Christ’s birth
will once more be heard by all, and that we will come
closer to that day of peace. In the name of Christ at whose
birth all heave sang we pray. Amen”
