Prayers For Christmas Eves

Christmas Eve Prayer
"Blessed Shining Night of Lights
Pointing out the newborn babe
Who came to show our world that love
Is by far the truest way.

To find the path to heaven's home
To make our searching not in vain
To show the way that fills our soul
With heavenly light day by day.

Blessed Shining Light of Lights
We find you in our heart each day
And by our caring, sharing acts
We go forth, not led astray.

Blessed Babe of Golden Light
Never forgotten, here to stay
Living on eternally
Hand and hand with us each day.
Living on eternally
Living in joy with us today
- Susan Helene Kramer

Christmas Eve Prayer
Rejoice this night with all the hosts of heaven
For Christ our Savior is born.
He has come to foreigners travelling from afar,
He has come to shepherds outcast in the fields,
He has come bringing joy to the world.
He has come,
Heralding God's eternal world of peace and justice.
May we make ourselves a part of it,
And look into the light of Christ.
- Christine Sine

Christmas Eve Prayer
Bless this night, oh Lord, we pray,
Bless our families we love so dear,
Bless our friends far and near
Lord, give peace in every way.

As Mary waited for the birth
We wait in joyful expectation,
For dawn to bring a declaration
Lord, give new life to all the earth.

Lay your head where cattle feed,
There's humility within this stable;
Though you are poor, you are able…
Lord, give help to all in need.

Like shepherds we come to seek
A babe' who is Christ the King,
With triumph angels sing
Lord, give welcome to the meek.

For everything they have to gain,
Transform those lost in despair
We ask of you in evening prayer,
Lord, give dignity to all in pain.

Change us Jesus, and make us pure,
To guide this misplaced generation
Help us lead them into salvation,
Lord, give us strength to endure.

Bless us this night as we receive,
Gifts from the Father never ceasing
And celebrate your loves releasing
Lord, give us grace this Christmas Eve.
- Chrissy Siggee

Christmas Eve Prayer
Loving God, Help us remember the birth of Jesus,
that we may share in the song of the angels,
the gladness of the shepherds,
and worship of the wise men.

Close the door of hate
and open the door of love all over the world.
Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting.
Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings,
and teach us to be merry with clear hearts.

May the Christmas morning make us happy to be thy children,
and Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts,
forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus' sake.
- Robert Louis Stevenson
