“Christians, awake, salute the happy morn, when the Savior of the world was born; rise to adore the mystery of love, which hosts of angels chanted from above; with them the joyful tidings were begun of God incarnate and the Virgin’s son.”

“Oh, may we keep and ponder in our mind, God’s wondrous love in saving lost mankind! Let us trace the babe, who retrieved our loss, from his poor manger to his bitter cross. Tread in his steps, assisted by his grace, ‘till our imperfect state God doth replace.” Thank you, Lord!
