Devotion for Tuesday, December 19

During this Advent season, I invite you to ponder the words of these wonderful Advent Hymns!

Peace and Blessings,

Pastor Dave  

Light One Candle to Watch for Messiah

Light one candle to watch for Messiah: 

let the light banish darkness. 

He shall bring salvation to Israel, 

God fulfills the promise.

Light two candles to watch for Messiah: 

let the light banish darkness. 

He shall feed the flock like a shepherd, 

gently lead them homeward.

Light three candles to watch for Messiah: 

let the light banish darkness. 

Lift your heads and lift high the gateway 

for the King of glory.

Light four candles to watch for Messiah: 

let the light banish darkness. 

He is coming, tell the glad tidings. 

Let your light be shining.
