GOSPELMatthew(2:1-12)

Homily

PROFESSION OF FAITH (new) I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made.

For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Prayers of the Faithful Lord, let your light shine upon us.

WHAT CHILD IS THIS What Child is this, who laid to rest, On Mary's lap is sleeping? Whom angels greet with anthems sweet While shepherds watch are keeping? This, this is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and angels sing. Haste, haste to bring Him laud, The Babe, the Son of Mary.

So bring him incense, gold and myrrh Come peasant, king to own him; The King of Kings salvation brings, Let loving hearts enthrone him. This, this is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and angels sing. Haste, haste to bring Him laud, The Babe, the Son of Mary.

May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands, for the praise and glory of His name, for our good, and the good of His holy Church.

P – The Lord be with you. All – And with your spirit. P – Lift up your hearts. All – We lift them up to the Lord. P – Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. All – It is right and just. P – The Lord be with you. All – And with your spirit. P – Lift up your hearts. All – We lift them up to the Lord. P – Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. All – It is right and just.
