Holy God, clothed with
honor and majesty,
wrapped in light as with
a garment,
you have given us your
Son,
the reflection of your
glory.
The light shines in the
darkness;
O, do not let the
darkness overcome it.
Many in our world today
suffer greatly;
gather these lambs in
your arms.
They are hungry--feed
them,
carry them in your
bosom;
they are lost--gently
lead them,
save them from the
ravages of war;
sustain them with your powerful hand.
sustain them with your powerful hand.
