Let the just rejoice,
for their Justifier is born.
Let the sick and infirm rejoice,
for their Savior is born.
Let the captives rejoice,
for their Redeemer is born.
Let slaves rejoice,
for their Master is born.
Let free men rejoice,
for their Liberator is born.
Let All Christians rejoice,
for Jesus Christ is born.

-Augustine of Hippo (AD 354-440)

Augustine of Hippo (AD 354-440), an early Christian theologian and author of The Confessions and City of God

 

Almighty God, You have given Your only-begotten Son to take our nature upon Him, and to be born at this time of a pure virgin: Grant that we, who have been born again and made your children by adoption and grace, may daily be renewed by your Holy Spirit; through our Lord Jesus Christ, Who lives and reigns with You and the same Spirit, ever one God, world without end. Amen.

– Book of Common Prayer
