Part 1: O Holy Night

December 9, 2018

Please turn in your Bibles to Lamentations 3:20-26

A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices.

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.”

I well remember them,

and my soul is downcast within me.

21 Yet this I call to mind

and therefore I have hope:

22 Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed,

for His compassions never fail.

23 They are new every morning;

great is your faithfulness.

24 I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion;

therefore I will wait for Him.”

25 The LORD is good to those whose hope is in Him,

to the one who seeks Him… Lamentations 3:22-25
