He's Coming
Comfort, oh comfort.
Speak softly and tenderly
Make it perfectly clear
That our savior is near
Make a road straight and smooth
A highway fit for a King
Calm the valleys and the hills
Raise your voice and sing
He's coming, He's coming
To shepherd His love
In His arms He will hold us
With the blessing from above
He's coming, He's coming
To shepherd His love
In His words He will guide us
With the power from above
Clear the way for the Lord
Clear the way for the Lord
Prepare a place for His glory to shine

Readings
“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:6)
“They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.” (Isaiah 2:4)
13 When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”
14 So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt, 15 where he stayed until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son.”
16 When Herod realized that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was furious, and he gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, in accordance with the time he had learned from the Magi. 17 Then what was said through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:
18 “A voice is heard in Ramah,
weeping and great mourning,
Rachel weeping for her children
and refusing to be comforted,
because they are no more. (Matthew 2:13-18)
Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. (Colossians 3:12-15)
“ Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” (John 14:27)
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God. (Matthew 5:9)
Communion
For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me." In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me." For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. (1 Corinthians 11:23-26 ESV)
Love Divine
Purify our hearts with truth
And guide them in Your way
Sanctify our lives anew
Have mercy Lord we pray
That we may do what's pleasing in Your sight
And know the fullness of Your sacrifice
We break this bread we drink this wine
Remembering the cross
The beauty of Your love divine
Is washing over us
That we may do what's pleasing in Your sight
And know the fullness of Your sacrifice
Lord we come to You
We're amazed by You and all You've done
All You've done for us
You have set us free
Oh the mystery of all You've done
All You've done for us
Alleluia alleluia alleluia amen
Oh alleluia alleluia alleluia amen
May the Lord bless us and keep us;
May he make His face shine upon us, and be gracious to us,
May he lift up His countenance upon us, and give us peace.
(Numbers 6:24-26 NKJV)

Blessing
A Baby Will Come
The kings of this world
Have torn it apart
But we can take heart
A baby will come
To the hungry and meek
To those who grieve
To the broken in need
A baby will come
We have known pain
We've felt death's sting
God help us believe
This baby will come
The angel appeared
Said do not fear
For peace is here
A baby has come
The advent of life
Let hope arise
We've our Savior and Christ
The baby has come
We've waited so long
God for Your mighty arm
May our doubts ever calm
For the baby has come
