Here’s
is a closing litany for Christmas. It
was written by Rev. Gord, and posted on Worship
Offerings.
Closing Responses
(inspired by Luke
2:17)
Then
the shepherds told everyone what had happened
and
what the angel had said to them about this child.
All who
heard the shepherds’ story were astonished. Luke 2:17
It has been done!
The
News has been shared!
A young maiden will bear a child,
A young maiden will bear a child,
and
she will call him Jesus.
But
that is the beginning of the story,
a
story that has not yet ended.
A story that includes us,
A story that includes us,
a
story of which we are a part.
So
we go out to live the story,
to tell of the Hope that is being born among us this Christmas,
to tell of the Hope that is being born among us this Christmas,
to
share the Love of the season with the world,
to
be agents of Peace in times of trouble,
to
sing songs of deep and abiding Joy.
As
you go, may God go with you,
challenging
us to respond God's Call
in ways that are new,
in ways that are new,
unexpected and a little unsettling.
And as Tiny Tim said so very well...
God Bless Us Every One. Amen.
And as Tiny Tim said so very well...
God Bless Us Every One. Amen.
