Your light is strong…

January 2, 2010 By Elizabeth Scalia

Father of light, unchanging God,
today you reveal to men of faith
the resplendent fact of the Word made flesh.
Your light is strong,
your love is near;
draw us beyond the limits which this world imposes,
to the life where your Spirit makes all life complete.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
— Alternative Closing Prayer, First Vespers of the Epiphany

You can listen to the complete First Vespers for this Solemnity, here. Much more professionally done than my old podcasts.

An underrated Christmas Carol:
