Loving God,
your mercy towers to the heavens,
and your faithfulness to the skies.

Ever loving God,
we, your children,
always grateful for your gift
of family,
thank you for the holiness
of our homes.

On this day of great rejoicing
Lord Jesus Christ, when we welcome
You as our King and Saviour,
we also walk in the shadow of Your cross.

Loving God,
You have given all peoples one common origin,
and your will is to gather them as one family in yourself.
