Help us prepare your way, O Lord,
exalting every valley and making low
every hill and mountain to announce
Your coming among us
our Messiah and God.

With hearts longing for your peace
we eagerly await your advent, O Lord,
when the glory of God again fills the earth
with your peace, and justice rains down
from the highest heavens.

May your kingdom come and
Your will be done, when heaven and earth
acknowledge Your presence among us O Lord our God,
and love, mercy, forgiveness and truth
fill the world With the glory of God.

Amen.

Father Joseph Veneroso, M.M.
