By the tender mercy of our God, the dawn from on high will break upon us,

 to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,

    to guide our feet into the way of peace.”

Collect for the Third Sunday of Advent

 

Third Sunday of Advent

Stir up thy power, O Lord, and with great might come

among us; and, because we are sorely hindered by our sins,

let thy bountiful grace and mercy speedily help and deliver

us; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with thee and

the Holy Ghost, be honor and glory, world without end.

Amen.
