Now Rest Beneath Night’s Shadow
CW 587:3,4
Lord Jesus, since you love me, Oh, spread your wings above me
And shield me from alarm. Though Satan would assail me,
Your mercy will not fail me; I rest in your protecting arm.
My loved ones, rest securely, For God this night will surely
From peril guard your heads. Sweet slumbers may he send you
And bid his hosts attend you and through the night watch o’er your beds.

The Conclusion
What does God say about all these commandments?
He says, “I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God punishing the children for the sin of the
fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a
thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.”
What does this mean?
God threatens to punish all who transgress these commandments. Therefore we should
fear his anger and not disobey what he commands. But he promises grace and every
blessing to all who keep these commandments. Therefore we should love and trust in
Him and gladly obey what he commands

Christmas Recitation/Luke 2:1-7
Nearly two thousand years ago, a great event occurred that is recorded in the second
chapter of Luke’s gospel: In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census
should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place
while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) And everyone went to his own town to register.
So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the
town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to
register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child.
While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her
firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there
was no room for them in the inn.

Go Tell It On the Mountain CW 57
Refrain:
Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills, and everywhere;
Go, tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.
While shepherds kept their watching o’er silent flocks by night,
Behold, throughout the heavens there shone a holy light.
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo, above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Savior’s birth.
Down in a lowly manger the humble Christ was born;
And God sent us salvation that blessed Christmas morn.

Christmas Recitation/Luke 2:13-16
‘Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor
rests.’ ”
When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one
another, ‘Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord
has told us about.’ So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who
was lying in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning
what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what
the shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered
them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the
things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.

The star proclaims the King is here; But Herod, why this senseless fear?
For he who came from heaven’s throne does not desire an earthly crown.
The wiser Magi saw from far and followed on his guiding star.
And, led by light, to Light they pressed and by their gifts their God confessed,
All glory unto Jesus be and praise for his Epiphany,
Whom with the Father we adore and Holy Spirit evermore.

O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by.
Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting light.
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.
For Christ is born of Mary, and, gathered all above,
While mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wond’ring love.
O morning stars, together Proclaim the holy birth,
And praises sing to God the King and peace to all the earth.

O Little Town of Bethlehem /CW 66
How silently, how silently, the wondrous gift is giv’n
So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of his heav’n

O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray;
Cast out our sin and enter in; be born in us today.

Oh, come to us, abide with us, our Lord Immanuel!

The Conclusion
What does God say about all these commandments?
He says, “I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God punishing the children for the sin of the
fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a
thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.”
What does this mean?
God threatens to punish all who transgress these commandments. Therefore we should
fear his anger and not disobey what he commands. But he promises grace and every
blessing to all who keep these commandments. Therefore we should love and trust in
Him and gladly obey what he commands

Let All Things Now Living
CW 260
Let all things now living a song of thanksgiving
To God the Creator triumphantly raise,
Who fashioned and made us, Protected and stayed us,
Who still guides us on to the end of our days.
God’s banners are o’er us; His light goes before us,
A pillar of fire shining forth in the night,
Till shadows have vanished and darkness is banished,
As forward we travel from light into light.

The First Article
I believe in God the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth.
What does this mean?
I believe that God created me and all that exists, and that he gave me my body and soul,
eyes, ears and all my members, my mind and all my abilities.
And I believe that God still preserves me by richly and daily providing clothing and
shoes, food and drink, property and home, spouse and children, land, cattle and all I own,
and all that I need to keep my body and life. God also preserves me by defending me
against all danger, guarding and protecting me from all evil.
All this God does only because he is my good and merciful Father in heaven, and not
because I have earned or deserved it. For all this I ought to thank and praise, to serve and
obey him.
This is most certainly true

Friday, May 15
The Second Article
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the virgin Mary; suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified, died, and was
buried. He descended into hell. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended
into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty. From there he
will come to judge the living and the dead.
What does this mean?
I believe that Jesus Christ, true God, begotten of the Father from eternity, and also true
man, born of the virgin Mary, is my Lord.
He has redeemed me, a lost and condemned creature, purchased and won me from all
sins, from death, and from the power of the devil, not with gold or silver, but with his
holy, precious blood and with his innocent suffering and death
All this he did that I should be his own, and live under him in his kingdom,
and serve him in everlasting righteousness, innocence, and blessedness,
just as he has risen from death and lives and rules eternally.
This is most certainly true.

Friday, May 22
The Third Article
I believe in the Holy Spirit; the holy Christian church, the communion of saints; the
forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen.
What does this mean?
I believe that I cannot by my own thinking or choosing believe in Jesus Christ, my Lord,
or come to him.
But the Holy Ghost has called me by the gospel, enlightened me with his gifts, sanctified
and kept me in the true faith. In the same way he calls, gathers, enlightens and sanctifies
the whole Christian church on earth and keeps it with Jesus Christ in the one true faith.
In this Christian church he daily and fully forgives all sins to me and all believers. On the
Last Day he will raise me and all the dead and give eternal life to me and all believers in
Christ.
This is most certainly true.

nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit!”
