Opening

"O God of Thunder, God of Might,
set aside Your lightning bolts
and take Your ease of Love with me.
You are the God of laughter!
You are the God of all delights!
Blessed Be."

Main Prayer

Lord,
The Dark Night
gives way.
The God is born this day.

The sacred silence of Winter
slides into the light -
no longer shall we be ruled
by the night.

The Dark Night
gives way.
The God is born this day.

The day dawns with bright promise -
shadows are undone.
Chains of darkness are shattered
by the Sun.

The Dark Night
gives way.
The God is born this day.

Rejoice in the coming of the light!
