God of all gifts, we thank you for the many ways
you have blessed us this day. As a God of compassion, you know the holes that
are left in our heart caused by the senseless death of a loved one. While the
world celebrates around us we long for a Christmas past where we could have our
loved one with us again. Only you can understand the depths of our sadness, for
you experienced the death of your own Son on the Cross to save our souls. Lord,
for all of us who suffer through tragedy, we pray that you heal us of the loss
of our loved one who departed, and dry the tears of sorrow that weighs down our
hearts.
May your hand impart peace and healing to the
downtrodden and bring justice to a land who needs Your counsel and guidance. We
ask for Your special dispensation for families victimized by heinous crimes and
for Your wisdom to reign in the courtrooms- but most of all, we want in this
season for Your will and way to penetrate the hearts of the unbelieving who can
never have the inner peace they long for until You enter their hearts.
From the Unit 1012 to your family, may God bless
and protect this Christmas season and open up more doors for legal and social
justice to prevail. Amen
We will present this
song by Joy Williams:
Here With Us
from
the album Come
Let Us Adore Him
It's still a mystery to me
That the hands of God could be so small
How tiny fingers reaching in the night
Were the very hands that measured the sky
Chorus
Hallelujah x2
Heaven's love reaching down to save the world
Hallelujah x2
Son of God Servant King
You're here with us x2
It's still a mystery to me
How His infant eyes have seen the dawn of time
How His ears have heard an angel's symphony
But still Mary had to rock her Savior to sleep
[Chorus]
Jesus the Christ born in Bethlehem
A baby born to save to save the souls of man
[Chorus x2]
That the hands of God could be so small
How tiny fingers reaching in the night
Were the very hands that measured the sky
Chorus
Hallelujah x2
Heaven's love reaching down to save the world
Hallelujah x2
Son of God Servant King
You're here with us x2
It's still a mystery to me
How His infant eyes have seen the dawn of time
How His ears have heard an angel's symphony
But still Mary had to rock her Savior to sleep
[Chorus]
Jesus the Christ born in Bethlehem
A baby born to save to save the souls of man
[Chorus x2]
