Lord, you’re coming whether we’re ready or not

Help us to prepare a place in our hearts for you.

This time of year it gets so busy –

cards to write, presents to wrap,

and all that special food to buy…

Help us to remember what it’s all for,

Who it’s all about.

Amongst  the glitter, the rush, the excitement

May we remember you

Take time to pause and reflect

prepare that space

where you can live

in us –

not just this Christmas,

but everyday.
