Is 60:1-6; Ps 72:1-7, 10-14; Eph 3:1-12; MT 2:1-12
Lead us to your presence, O God, where we may see your glory face to face.
AMEN.
“Those magic men, the Magi,
Some people call them wise
Or Oriental, even kings
Well anyway, those guys
They visited with Jesus
They sure enjoyed their stay
Then, warned in a dream of King Herod’s scheme
They went home by another way” Timothy Mayer and James Taylor’s freely adapted today’s Gospel here, while we also hear, “Arise, shine for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.”
