Prayers for Epiphany, Day 4

In our celebrations of Christmas and Epiphany we rejoice in the dawning and the arising of Light in darkness. …Epiphany not only discloses the Savior to the world but also calls the world to show forth Christ, to be witnesses to God’s true Light.

O God of light and peace, 
whose glory, shining in the child of Bethlehem, 
still draws the nations to yourself: 
dispel the darkness that shrouds our path, 
that we may come 
to kneel before Christ in true worship, 
offer him our hearts and souls, 
and return from his presence to live as he has taught. Amen.
