Good Morning!

² The people who walked in darkness

      Have seen a great light;

      Those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death,

      Upon them a light has shined.

       ³ You have multiplied the nation

      And increased its joy;

      They rejoice before You

      According to the joy of harvest,

      As men rejoice when they divide the spoil.

       ⁴ For You have broken the yoke of his burden

      And the staff of his shoulder,

      The rod of his oppressor,

      As in the day of Midian.

       ⁵ For every warrior’s sandal from the noisy battle,

      And garments rolled in blood,

      Will be used for burning and fuel of fire.

       ⁶ For unto us a Child is born,

      Unto us a Son is given;

      And the government will be upon His shoulder.

      And His name will be called

      Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,

      Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

       ⁷ Of the increase of His government and peace

      There will beno end,

      Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,

      To order it and establish it with judgment and justice

      From that time forward, even forever.

      The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this. (Isaiah 9:2-7, New King James Version)

All Hail! Lord, we greet Thee,

Born this happy morning,

O Jesus! for evermore be Thy name adored.

Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing;

O come, let us adore Him,

O come, let us adore Him,

O come, let us adore Him,

Christ the Lord. 

Merry Christmas to you all! 

May your day be filled with peace and love.
