A Christmas Prayer
Peter Marshall Congress Chaplain, 1947
We thank thee, O God, for the return of the
wondrous spell of this Christmas season that
brings its own sweet joy into our jaded and
troubled hearts.
Forbid it, Lord, that we should celebrate
without understanding what we celebrate, or
like our counterparts so long ago, fail to see
the star or to hear the song of glorious
promise.
As our hearts yield to the spirit of
Christmas, may we discover that it is Thy
Holy Spirit who comes — not a sentiment,
but a power — to remind us of the only way
by which there may be peace on the earth
and good will among men.
May we not spend Christmas, but keep it,
that we may be kept in its hope, through
Him who emptied Himself in coming to us
that we might be filled with peace and joy in returning to God.
Amen
