O Lord, let my soul rise up to meet you
As the day rises to meet the sun.
Glory to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever.
Gracious God, while we sat in darkness,
You interrupted us with your son Jesus Christ.
Make us, your people, a holy interruption so that
By your Spirit’s power we may live as a light to the nations,
Even as we stumble through this world’s dark night. Amen
