A Prayer for Advent
Be comforted, be comforted, my people; thy salvation cometh quickly. Why with grief art thou consumed? For sorrow hath stricken thee. I will save thee; fear not, for I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Redeemer.
V/. Drop dew, ye heavens, from above.
R/. And let the clouds rain the Just One.
Let us pray:
O GOD, Who dost gladden us by the annual expectation of our Redemption, grant that we, who now receive with joy Thine only-begotten Son as our Redeemer, may behold Him without fear when He cometh as our judge, even the same Lord Jesus Christ Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth forever and ever. Amen.
