Let us joyfully acclaim Christ, born at Bethlehem in Judea, for he gives nourishment and guidance to his holy people:
Let your favor rest upon us, Lord.
Christ the Savior, desired of the nations, spread your Gospel to places still deprived of the Word of life,
— draw every person to yourself.
Let your favor rest upon us, Lord.
Christ the Lord, let your Church grow and extend the boundaries of its homeland,
— until it embraces men and women of every language and race.
Let your favor rest upon us, Lord.
King of kings, direct the hearts and minds of rulers,
— to seek justice, peace and freedom for all nations.
Let your favor rest upon us, Lord.
Almighty ruler, strength of the weak, support those in temptation, lift up the fallen, protect those living in danger,
— console those who have been deceived, comfort the incurably ill, strengthen the faith of the anxious.
Let your favor rest upon us, Lord.
Consoler of the sorrowful, comfort the dying,
— and lead them to the fountains of living water.
Let your favor rest upon us, Lord.
