O God of Elizabeth and Mary,
you visited your servants with news of the world's redemption
in the coming of the Savior.
Make our hearts leap with joy,
and fill our mouths with songs of praise,
that we may announce glad tidings of peace,
and welcome the Christ in our midst. Amen.
from Revised Common Lectionary prayers, Year A, Fourth Week of Advent
Make my heart leap with joy and fill my mouth with song! Good news, Jesus is here! Messiah! Amen
