A Christmas Prayer by Robert Louis Stevenson
Loving Father, 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 hateAnd open the door of love all over the world.Let kindness come with every giftAnd good desires with every greeting.Deliver us from evil by the blessing, which Christ bringsAnd teach us to be merry with clear hearts.May the Christmas morning make usHappy to be thy childrenAnd Christmas evening bring usTo our beds with grateful thoughtsForgiving and forgivenFor Jesus sakeAmen.— Robert Louis Stevenson
