To Jesus Christ, our Redeemer, the way, the truth, and the life, let us make our humble prayer:
Come and stay with us, Lord.
Son of the Most High, your coming was announced to the Virgin Mary by Gabriel,
— come and rule over your people for ever:
Come and stay with us, Lord.
Holy One of God, in your presence John the Baptist leapt in Elizabeth’s womb,
— bring the joy of salvation to all the earth:
Come and stay with us, Lord.
Jesus the Savior, the angel revealed your name to Joseph the just man,
— come and save your people from their sins:
Come and stay with us, Lord.
Light of the world, for whom Simeon and all the just waited,
— come and comfort us:
Come and stay with us, Lord.
O Rising Sun that never sets, Zechariah foretold that you would visit us from above,
— come and shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death:
Come and stay with us, Lord.
