Beloved in Christ, I bring unto you the everlasting hope of our LORD Jesus Christ, in whom we all shall live. Remember the day of rejoicing at the Cross, where liberty beseech thee, where captivity was held captive. To God we give glory in all things; merciful is he; his endearing love to whom we give praises upon praises, bountiful, worthy unto our precious LORD; for by his merciful grace we were accepted into the glorious hands of our living God. Let us all continue to rejoice in the blessed hope of righteousness through Christ our LORD and Savior, the redeemer of our souls, that we come united in the body of Christ, edifying the Church as we await the coming of the most High King, into whose kingdom we shall dwell without sorrow unto eternity. Be not weary in this hour: the hand of God is with us; for him who justified also glorified. To the most High God we give praises, everlasting unto everlasting. Amen.
