Christmas Novena: December
17-23
O Lord, Word of God, You, whose glory is
complete, came to us in perfect humility as a child in the womb. Your love for
us and humility is unsurpassed and brings us to our knees in prayer and
worship.
Your incarnation forever changed the world.
All Glory be to the Father and to the Son and
to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning is now and forever shall be,
world without end.
Amen.
