Praise

O Lord God, we exalt You this Lord’s Day. You are the One who sent Your only begotten Son to dwell with us. Though He was a Holy Child and not tainted by sin, You made Him a little lower than the angels that He might save us from our sins. He submitted to circumcision and John’s baptism, so that as the first born of creation, He showed Himself fully man that He might fully redeem man. He, who knew no sin, was washed by man and we are washed in Him. We give You the praise for sending Him to redeem us through His perfect life, atoning death, and powerful resurrection. Glory to God in the highest. Amen.
