Prayer - Advent

King Jesus,

We raise your name on high in worship and praise for your life and death along with the salvation you made possible for each of us. You are the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. All glory be to you, Jesus, who as both God and man saved us from our sin.

As we see the end of our church year approach, we joyously anticipate the season of advent when we prepare for the celebration of your birth. Looking back, we realize how important you are in our lives, Holy Jesus. We know your death, resurrection, and ascension overcame evil for each of us. We are blessed you loved us enough to die on the cross to save us from our selfishness and our sins.

You are the King of heaven and earth, our leader, redeemer, and friend. We thank you for your mercy upon us.

In your holy name we pray, Amen.
