O almighty and everlasting God, You have made Your only begotten Son to be both the glory of Your people Israel and the light to lighten the Gentiles. You have prepared Your salvation for all people. Let Your Church shine as holy Zion that the Gentiles may come to her light and nations to the brightness of her rising, and that they with us and the whole host of heaven may praise You and Your most holy name and live forever in Your presence in light and glory everlasting; through Your dear Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen. (Lutheran Book of Prayer, #77)
