Through the tender mercy of our God
the day shall dawn upon us from on high
to give light to those who sit in darkness
and in the shadow of death
and to guide our feet
into the way of peace.
~Luke 1:78-79
This day you shall know that the Lord is coming,
and tomorrow you shall His glory...
run to meet Him, saying:
It is the great beginning,
and of His reign there shall be no end:
God, the Mighty, the Ruler,
the Prince of Peace, alleluia.
~Divine Office for the Vigil of Christmas
from the Roman Catholic Breviary
