Prayer Petitions For December 5, 2019

To Christ, the great light promised by the prophets to those who live in the shadow of death, let us raise our voices in prayer:
Come, Lord Jesus.

Word of God, in the beginning you created all things and in the fullness of time assumed our nature,
— come and deliver us from death.
Come, Lord Jesus.

True light, shining on mankind,
— come and dispel our darkness.
Come, Lord Jesus.

Only-begotten Son, dwelling in the Father’s heart,
— come and tell us of God’s loving kindness.
Come, Lord Jesus.

Christ Jesus, you come among us as the Son of Man,
— transform those who know you into the sons and daughters of God.
Come, Lord Jesus.

You welcome all who call upon you in need,
— bring into your wedding feast those who beg at the door.
Come, Lord Jesus.
