Today Our Savior Is Born! This Is the Day, Christ, Our Savior Is Born!

Today Our Savior Is Born! This Is the Day, Christ, Our Savior Is Born! Today we celebrate the Incarnation of the Word made flesh, when God broke into human life to take on human flesh in the person of Jesus of Nazareth. For the feast of the Nativity, the Church now offers options of readings and psalms. The most common Gospel is the familiar story from Luke, chapter 2, verses 1-20. The psalm for the traditional Midnight Mass is Psalm 96. All of creation, animate and inanimate, sings a new song of welcome and gives praise to our Creator-God. A new song for the Creator! Sing it and bless God’s name, everyone, everywhere!Tell the whole world God’s triumph day to day, God’s glory, God’s wonder.Let heaven and earth be glad, the sea and sea creatures roar, the field and its beasts exult.Then let the trees of the forest sing before the coming of God, who comes to judge the nations, to set the earth aright, restoring the world to order.
