Lord Jesus Christ, You are the hope of the nation. You are the light in the midst of darkness. You are the sure help of the needy, the sick and the dying. You are the powerful protector of those who trust in You. Lord Jesus, as we joyfully prepare for Your coming, please increase our hope in You.
Forgive us our sins and help us to become more like You each day. Remove in our hearts all kinds of hatred, malice and pain. Heal our brokenness, Lord, and guide us towards our way to Eternal Life in heaven. Amen.
