Luke
2:14; John 1:29, Revelation 5:9-14; Ephesians 1:20-21 The Hymn of the Day is “All Glory Be to God on
High” (LSB #947). The original Gloria in Excelsis Deo was sung by a choir of
angels at the announcement of the birth of Christ. Christmas won’t come for
another eight months but every time we as Christians gather we are given
opportunity to sing the praises of our God. Together we will gather to praise
the name of our God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit. May our God remain at the
center of our life and worship.
1 All glory be to God on high And thanks for all His favor;
God shows His good and gracious will And grants His peace, the world to fill—
All strife at last has ended.
With boundless pow’r, Your mighty reign Fulfills whatever You ordain.
Lord, grant us ev’ry blessing!
O Lamb of God, to You on high in our distress we sinners cry,
Have mercy on us, amen!
Who by His death upon a tree Has rescued us from misery:
To this we hold forever. [2]
