HOLY
December 24, 2023
They will be called the Holy People, the Redeemed of the Lord; and you will be called Sought After, the City No Longer Deserted.
Isaiah 62:12
Thought
Never run before God’s guidance. (Oswald Chambers)
Song
"Infant Holy, Infant Lowly"
1. Infant holy, Infant lowly,
For His bed a cattle stall;
Oxen lowing, little knowing
Christ the Babe is Lord of all.
Swift are winging, angels singing,
Noels ringing, tidings bringing,
Christ the Babe is Lord of all!
Christ the Babe is Lord of all!
2. Flocks were sleeping, shepherds keeping
Vigil till the morning new,;
Saw the glory, heard the story,
Tidings of a Gospel true.
Thus rejoicing, free from sorrow,
Praises voicing, greet the morrow,
Christ the Babe was born for you!
Christ the Babe was born for you!
Prayer
Lord Jesus, You are no longer an infant holy and lowly. Now You are a holy King ascended and on high. Tomorrow Your birth will be celebrated with songs and merriment, but these are meaningless if You are not born again in me. Like the cradle on earth below and the throne in heaven above, may my heart bear You and testify that You were born for and are Lord of all. To You be the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
