Keep up until the Advent song is starting

2. Not quite time to celebrate, Until Advent time is done.
Advent Song
Tune of “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”
Advent is a time to wait
Not quite time to celebrate,
Count the candles 1 by 1,
Until Advent time is done.
Day by day we work and play, 
To prepare for Christmas day!
Put up during singing

3. we praise You for Your Son, Jesus Christ, for He is Emmanuel,
Lord, our God,
we praise You for Your Son,
Jesus Christ, for He is Emmanuel,
the Hope of all people.
He is the Wisdom that teaches and guides us.
He is the Saviour of us all.
O Lord, let your blessing come upon us
as we light the first and second candles of this wreath.
May the wreath and its light be a sign of
Christ’s promise of salvation.
May He come quickly and not delay.
We ask this in His holy name.
Amen.

We have started on our way,

8. Loving and powerful God, Some days I can only be in awe
of your power and love.
You never tire of supporting me.
I constantly ask for help
knowing you will always be there.
From some place deep in my soul,
I hear you calling me by name
and I prepare with a joyful heart for your coming.
Grant me the gift of hope, patience and
waiting in these Advent days
because I want the focus of my waiting to be on you.
I want to praise and glorify you with my life.
Let me live my gratitude to you, rejoicing!
Amen
