The Blessing of The Light

MENU

You may light a candle.

Prayer

Your word, O God, is a lantern to our feet
And a light upon our path.

The light of Christ be with us

Let us give thanks to God
It is right to offer thanks and praise.

Blessèd are you,
Creator of light and darkness!
As evening falls, you renew your promise
to reveal among us the light of your presence.
May your word be a lantern to our feet
and a light upon our path,
that we may behold your glory coming among us.
Strengthen us in our stumbling weakness
and free our tongues to sing your praise,
Creator, Redeemer, and Giver of Life:
Blessèd be God for ever!
Amen.

O Rex Gentium (O King of the Nations)

O King of the nations, and their desire,
the cornerstone making both one:
Come and save the human race,
which you fashioned from clay.
