Prayer of the eighth day, December 22, of the Maronite Christmas Novena.
“O King of Great Counsel, you have united the magnificence of your resplendent power with the prudence of human judgment when you, the almighty and powerful God, took flight to Egypt to escape Herod. We implore you, through your pure nativity and through the intercession of your mother and Saint Joseph, your chosen one, to grant us sound judgment in all of our actions, that we may act in all wisdom and serve you all the days of our lives. Amen.”
