parables and deeds,
Response:
We thank thee, O God,
for the Word made Flesh.
Reader:
For those who study the Word
of God and of the Christ,

For those who shape their lives
by the Word and diligently tend the

Reader:
All things were made through him,
And without him
was not anything made that was made.
In him was life,
and the life was the light of men.
The light shines in the darkness,
and the darkness has not overcome it.
Response:
We thank thee, O God, for the Light.
