- | Beloved in Christ, at this Christmastide, | 35:10 |
let it be our care and delight | 35:15 | |
to hear again the message of the angels | 35:18 | |
and in heart and mind to go even unto Bethlehem | 35:21 | |
and see this thing which has come to pass | 35:26 | |
and the babe lying in a manger. | 35:29 | |
Therefore, let us read and mark the Holy Scripture, | 35:33 | |
the tale of the loving purposes of God | 35:37 | |
from the first days of our disobedience | 35:41 | |
unto the glorious redemption brought to us | 35:45 | |
by this holy child. | 35:48 | |
But first, let us pray for the needs of the whole world. | 35:51 | |
Let us pray. | 35:56 | |
For peace on Earth and goodwill among all God's people, | 36:02 | |
for unity within the church Jesus the Christ came to build, | 36:08 | |
and especially in this place | 36:13 | |
and because this would rejoice his heart, | 36:17 | |
let us remember in his name the poor and helpless, | 36:20 | |
the cold, the hungry, and the oppressed, | 36:26 | |
the sick and them that mourn, | 36:30 | |
the lonely and the unloved, | 36:33 | |
the aged and the little children, | 36:36 | |
all those who know not the Lord Jesus or who love him not | 36:39 | |
or who by sin have grieved his heart of love. | 36:44 | |
Lastly, let us remember before God | 36:49 | |
all those who rejoice with us | 36:52 | |
but upon another shore and in a greater light, | 36:55 | |
that multitude which no one can number, | 36:59 | |
whose hope was in the word made flesh | 37:02 | |
and with whom in the Lord Jesus we are one forevermore. | 37:06 | |
These prayers and praises, | 37:12 | |
let us humbly offer up to the throne of heaven. | 37:14 | |
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, we pray, Amen. | 37:18 | |

- | Christ's birth and kingdom are foretold by Isaiah. | 41:21 |
Isaiah chapter 11, verses one through five, | 41:27 | |
and chapter nine, verses two through four, six and seven. | 41:31 | |
There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, | 41:38 | |
and a branch shall grow out of his roots. | 41:42 | |
And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, | 41:46 | |
the spirit of wisdom and understanding, | 41:50 | |
the spirit of counsel and might, | 41:54 | |
the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord. | 41:57 | |
And his delight shall be in the fear of the Lord. | 42:03 | |
He shall not judge by what his eyes see | 42:08 | |
or decide by what his ears hear, | 42:12 | |
but with righteousness, he shall judge the poor | 42:17 | |
and decide with equity for the meek of the earth. | 42:21 | |
And he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, | 42:26 | |
and with the breath of his lips, he shall slay the wicked. | 42:30 | |
Righteousness shall be the girdle of his waist | 42:36 | |
and faithfulness the girdle of his loins. | 42:39 | |
The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. | 42:44 | |
Those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, | 42:48 | |
on them has light shined. | 42:52 | |
Thou has multiplied the nation. | 42:56 | |
Thou has increased its joy. | 42:58 | |
They rejoice before thee as with joy at the harvest, | 43:02 | |
as men rejoice when they divide the spoil. | 43:06 | |
For the yoke of his burden and the staff for his shoulder, | 43:11 | |
the rod of his oppressor, | 43:16 | |
thou has broken as on the day of Midian. | 43:19 | |
For to us, a child is born. | 43:23 | |
To us, a son is given. | 43:27 | |
And the government will be upon his shoulder, | 43:30 | |
and his name will be called Wonderful Counselor, | 43:33 | |
Mighty God, | 43:38 | |
Everlasting Father, | 43:40 | |
Prince of Peace. | 43:42 | |
Of the increase of his government and of peace, | 43:45 | |
there will be no end, | 43:49 | |
upon the throne of David and over his kingdom, | 43:51 | |
to establish it and to uphold it with justice | 43:54 | |
and with righteousness from this time forth and forevermore. | 43:58 | |
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this. | 44:05 | |
Thanks be to God. | 44:09 | |

- | The angel Gabriel visits the Blessed Virgin Mary, | 1:52 |
Saint Luke, 1:26-38. | 1:58 | |
In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God | 2:04 | |
to a city of Galilee named Nazareth | 2:08 | |
to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph | 2:12 | |
of the house of David, and the virgin's name was Mary, | 2:16 | |
and he came to her and said Hail, oh favored one, | 2:21 | |
The Lord is with you. | 2:26 | |
But she was greatly troubled at the saying and considered | 2:29 | |
in her mind what sort of greeting this might be. | 2:33 | |
And the angel said to her do not be afraid Mary, | 2:38 | |
for you have found favor with God, and behold, | 2:43 | |
you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, | 2:48 | |
and you shall call his name Jesus. | 2:52 | |
He will be great and will be called the son | 2:56 | |
of the Most High, and the Lord God will give | 2:59 | |
to him the throne of his father, David, | 3:02 | |
and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever | 3:05 | |
and of his kingdom there will be no end. | 3:10 | |
And Mary said to the angel how can this be | 3:14 | |
since I have no husband? | 3:18 | |
And the angel said to her The holy spirit | 3:21 | |
will come upon you, and the power | 3:24 | |
of the Most High will overshadow you; | 3:27 | |
therefore, the child to be born | 3:31 | |
will be called Holy, the son of God, | 3:33 | |
and behold, your kinswoman Elizabeth, in her old age, | 3:37 | |
has also conceived a son, and this is the sixth month | 3:42 | |
with her who was called barren, | 3:46 | |
for with God, nothing will be impossible. | 3:49 | |
and Mary said behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. | 3:53 | |
Let it be to me according to your word, | 4:00 | |
and the angel departed from her. | 4:04 | |
Thanks be to God. | 4:08 | |
(choir sings with organ music) | 4:24 | |
- | The Blessed Virgin Mary rejoices before God, | 9:13 |
Saint Luke 1:39-55. | 9:18 | |
In those days, Mary arose and went with haste | 9:25 | |
into the hill country to a city of Judah, | 9:28 | |
and she entered the house of Zachariah | 9:33 | |
and greeted Elizabeth, and when Elizabeth | 9:35 | |
heard the greeting of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb, | 9:38 | |
and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, | 9:42 | |
and she exclaimed with a loud cry, | 9:45 | |
Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit | 9:48 | |
of your womb, and why is this granted me | 9:52 | |
that the mother of my Lord should come to me, | 9:56 | |
for behold, when the voice of your greeting came | 10:00 | |
to my ears, the babe in my womb leaped for joy, | 10:04 | |
and blessed is she who believed | 10:09 | |
that there would be a fulfillment | 10:11 | |
of what was spoken to her from the Lord. | 10:13 | |
And Mary said my soul magnifies the Lord, | 10:17 | |
and my spirit rejoices in God, my savior, | 10:23 | |
for he has regarded the lowest state | 10:27 | |
of his handmaiden, for behold, henceforth all generations | 10:30 | |
will call me blessed, for he who is Mighty | 10:37 | |
has done great things for me, and Holy is his name, | 10:42 | |
and his mercy is on those who fear him | 10:48 | |
from generation to generation. | 10:50 | |
He has shown strength with his arm. | 10:54 | |
He has scattered the proud | 10:58 | |
and the imagination of their hearts. | 11:00 | |
He has put down the mighty from their thrones | 11:02 | |
and exalted those of low degree. | 11:05 | |
He has filled the hungry with good things, | 11:08 | |
and the rich, he has sent empty away. | 11:11 | |
He has helped his servant Israel | 11:15 | |
in remembrance of his mercy, and he spoke | 11:18 | |
to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his posterity forever. | 11:22 | |
Thanks be to God. | 11:31 | |
(choir sings with organ music) | 11:41 | |
- | Saint Matthew tells of Christ's nativity, | 13:55 |
Saint Matthew, chapter 1:18-25. | 14:02 | |
Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. | 14:10 | |
When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, | 14:18 | |
and before the came together, she was found | 14:26 | |
to be with child of the Holy Spirit, | 14:29 | |
and her husband, Joseph, being a just man | 14:33 | |
and unwilling to put her to shame, | 14:38 | |
resolved to divorce her quietly. | 14:42 | |
But as he considered this, behold, | 14:49 | |
an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream saying, | 14:51 | |
Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary your wife, | 14:56 | |
for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. | 15:06 | |
She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, | 15:14 | |
for he will save his people from their sins. | 15:26 | |
All this took place to fulfill | 15:34 | |
what the Lord had spoken by the prophet. | 15:37 | |
Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, | 15:42 | |
and his name shall be called Emmanuel, | 15:51 | |
which means God with us. | 15:56 | |
When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel | 16:02 | |
of the Lord commanded him. | 16:08 | |
He took his wife but knew her not | 16:12 | |
until she had born a son, and he called his name Jesus. | 16:19 | |
Thanks be to God. | 16:27 | |
(choir sings with organ music) | 16:33 | |
- | The shepherds go unto the manger, Saint Luke 2:8-20. | 19:25 |
And in that region there were shepherds | 19:34 | |
out in the field keeping watch over their flock by night, | 19:37 | |
and an angel of the Lord appeared to them, | 19:44 | |
and the glory of the Lord shown around them, | 19:48 | |
and they were filled with fear, | 19:53 | |
and the angel said to them be not afraid, | 19:57 | |
for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy | 20:02 | |
which will come to all the people, | 20:08 | |
for to you is born this day in the City of David, | 20:12 | |
a savior who is Christ the Lord, | 20:17 | |
and this will be a sign for you. | 20:23 | |
You will find a babe wrapped in swaddling clothes | 20:27 | |
and lying in a manger, and suddenly, | 20:32 | |
there was with the angel a multitude | 20:37 | |
of the Heavenly host, praising God and saying | 20:41 | |
glory to God in the highest, and on Earth, | 20:47 | |
peace among people with whom he is pleased. | 20:52 | |
When the angels went away from them into Heaven, | 20:58 | |
The shepherds said to one another | 21:02 | |
let us go over to Bethlehem and see this thing | 21:06 | |
that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us. | 21:11 | |
And they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph | 21:18 | |
and the babe lying in a manger. | 21:23 | |
And when they saw it, they made known the saying | 21:27 | |
which had been told them concerning this child, | 21:31 | |
and all who heard it wondered at what the shepherds | 21:36 | |
told them, but Mary kept all these things, | 21:40 | |
pondering them in her heart, and the shepherds returned, | 21:47 | |
glorifying and praising God for all they had heard | 21:53 | |
and seen as it had been told them. | 21:57 | |
Thanks be to God. | 22:03 | |
(organ plays) | 22:07 | |
(choir sings with organ music) | 22:51 | |
- | The wise men are led by the star of Jesus, | 26:18 |
Saint Mathew, chapter 2:1-11. | 26:22 | |
Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, | 26:29 | |
in the days of Herod the king, | 26:32 | |
behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem | 26:35 | |
saying where is he who has been born king of the Jews, | 26:39 | |
for we have seen his star in the east | 26:45 | |
and have come to worship him. | 26:47 | |
When Herod the king heard this, | 26:50 | |
he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. | 26:52 | |
And assembling all the chief priests and scribes | 26:57 | |
of the people, he inquired of them | 27:00 | |
where the Christ was to be born. | 27:03 | |
They told him in Bethlehem of Judea, | 27:06 | |
for so it is written by the prophet, | 27:10 | |
and do, O Bethlehem in the land of Judah, | 27:13 | |
are by no means leased among the rulers of Judah, | 27:17 | |
for from you shall come a ruler | 27:21 | |
who will govern my people, Israel. | 27:24 | |
Then, Herod summoned the wise-men secretly | 27:28 | |
and ascertained from them what time the star appeared, | 27:31 | |
and he sent them to Bethlehem saying | 27:36 | |
go and search diligently for the child, | 27:39 | |
and when you have found him, bring me word | 27:42 | |
that I too may come and worship him. | 27:45 | |
When they had heard the king, they went their way, | 27:49 | |
and lo, the star that they had seen in the east | 27:52 | |
went before them 'till it came to rest | 27:56 | |
over the place where the child was. | 27:59 | |
When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly | 28:03 | |
with great joy, and going into the house, | 28:06 | |
they saw the child with Mary, his mother, | 28:10 | |
and they fell down and worshipped him. | 28:13 | |
Then, opening their treasures, | 28:17 | |
they offered him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. | 28:19 | |
Thanks be to God. | 28:25 |

- | St. John unfolds the great mystery of the incarnation. | 5:11 |
St. John 1:1-14. | 5:19 | |
In the beginning was the Word | 5:27 | |
and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. | 5:32 | |
He was in the beginning with God. | 5:42 | |
All things were made through him | 5:46 | |
and without him was not any thing made that was made. | 5:48 | |
In him was life, and the life was the light to all. | 5:56 | |
The light shines in the darkness | 6:03 | |
and the darkness has not overcome it. | 6:05 | |
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. | 6:12 | |
He came for testimony, to bear witness to the light | 6:17 | |
that all might believe through him. | 6:21 | |
He was not the light | 6:26 | |
but he came to bear witness to the light. | 6:29 | |
The true light that enlightens everyone | 6:33 | |
was coming into the world. | 6:37 | |
He was in the world, and the world was made through him | 6:40 | |
yet the world knew him not. | 6:45 | |
He came to his own home and his own people received him not. | 6:48 | |
But to all who received him, who believed in his name | 6:54 | |
he gave power to become children of God | 7:00 | |
who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh | 7:07 | |
nor of the will of man, but of the will of God. | 7:12 | |
And the Word became flesh and dwells among us | 7:18 | |
full of grace and truth. | 7:25 | |
