Unto us a CHILD is BORN

Melody ............. Lobt Gott, Ihr Christen 86 866

P For to us a child is born, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor. We light one candle for the One who brings us wisdom.

(The first candle is lit.)

To us a Child of hope is born, To us a Son is giv’n,

And on his shoulder ever rests All pow’r in earth and heav’n, All pow’r in earth and heav’n.

P We have sinned against God, walking in our own ways and rejecting his rule and his guiding wisdom.

C The Child born to us has redeemed us and guides us by his Word. He forgives our sins and leads us in the paths of righteousness.

P There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit.

C And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him,

P The Spirit of wisdom and understanding,

C The Spirit of counsel and might,

P The Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.

C And his delight shall be in the fear of the Lord.

P Ruled by Christ our Savior, we pray that we, too, will delight in the fear and knowledge of the Lord!

C We pray that his Spirit will guide us into all truth.

P Advent Lord, Wonderful Counselor, renew us by your Spirit.

C Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!

His name shall be the Prince of Peace, The Everlasting Lord,

The Wonderful, the Counselor, The God by all adored, The God by all adored.
