Bible Reading
I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation; he has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself like a priest with a beautiful headdress, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. For as the earth brings forth its sprouts, and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up, so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to sprout up before all the nations. (Isaiah 61:10-11ESV)
Hymn ELH104:1-2 O Bride of Christ, Rejoice
O Bride of Christ, rejoice!
Exultant raise thy voice
To hail the day of glory
Foretold in sacred story.
Hosanna, praise, and glory,
Our King, we bow before Thee.
Let shouts of gladness rise
Triumphant to the skies.
Here comes the King most glorious
To reign o’er all victorious.
Hosanna, praise, and glory,
Our King, we bow before Thee.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, prepare my heart again to remember the birth of Your Son, my Savior. Remind me of my need to be clothed in His righteousness, not my own. Give me comfort and joy in Jesus, my Savior. In His name I pray. Amen.
