May God’s mercy on display in the arrival of our King Jesus
be a comfort to you this Christmas season.
With fresh eyes may you see the bewildering sight
of the King of kings arriving in a manger.
May His choice of humility highlight His majesty in your eyes,
may His choice of meekness reveal to you His strength,
and may His choice of mercy in coming near to save us
heighten your love for Him.
May the mercy of our God seen in the Christmas story be a signpost to you,
beckoning you ever deeper into trusting Christ your King.
May the Lord bless you and keep you.
May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you.
May the Lord lift up His countenance to you and give you peace.
