From the prayer of the second day, December 16, of the Maronite Christmas Novena.
“O Hope of the Fathers and Expectation of the People, through your birth you have given us hope. By the sweetness of your hope, you have drawn the shepherds, the magi, and all who believe in your holy name to give the adoration that is due to you.”
