A Christmas Liturgy
God Near to Us
Father who asks for hope
Son who is hope
Spirit who hopes for us
We hold tight to you
thank you
Mother who holds us
Brother who knows how hard hope is
Sweet Spirit who sits beside us
We hold tight to you
thank you
Path laid before us
With us and ahead of us
The Head of us
We hold tight to you
thank you
God Near to Us
As we are tired and celebrating
Give us strength to rest and play
We breathe deep
your comfort and truth
You are quietly here. Undemanding. Simply being.
We hold tight to you
thank you
May our December be in you.
