As we concluded our time of confession on Sunday, we prayed Let Christ come into the fullness of our time. It was only appropriate that we would sing the final verse of O Little Town of Bethlehem:
O holy Child of Bethlehem!
Descend to us, we pray;
Cast out our sin, and enter in;
Be born in us todayWe hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell;
O come to us, abide with us,
Our Lord Emmanuel
These words remind us that the Light of Christ comes to us, even now, and dwells within and through us. Thanks be to God!
