Merciful God, who sent your messengers the prophets to preach repentance and

sins, that we may greet with joy the coming of Jesus Christ our Redeemer; who lives
and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Stir up your power, O Lord, and with great might come among us; and, because we are
sorely hindered by our sins, let your bountiful grace and mercy speedily help and deliver
us; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with you and the Holy Spirit, be honor and
glory, now and for ever. Amen.

and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

O God, you have caused this holy night to shine with the brightness of the true Light:
Grant that we, who have known the mystery of that Light on earth, may also enjoy him
perfectly in heaven; where with you and the Holy Spirit he lives and reigns, one God, in
glory everlasting. Amen.

Almighty God, you have given your only-begotten Son to take our nature upon him, and
to be born [this day] of a pure virgin: Grant that we, who have been born again and
made your children by adoption and grace, may daily be renewed by your Holy Spirit;
through our Lord Jesus Christ, to whom with you and the same Spirit be honor and
glory, now and for ever. Amen.
