O Christ, the Sun of Righteousness, shine graciously into our hearts that, walking as children of light, we may glorify thee before men, and, being always ready to obey Thy call, may, in our place and measure, hold up the light of life to them that sit in darkness and the shadow of death. Hear us, O Lord, for Thy great mercies’ sake, who livest and reignest with the Father and the Holy Ghost, now and for ever. Amen.
Today is Epiphany, the Christian feast day that commemorates the visit of the Magi (three Wise Men/Kings from India, Persia and Africa) to the Christ Child. We look after this print by Hendrick Goltzius, 1594. It shows Caspar, Melchior and Balthazar bearing their gifts. pic.twitter.com/1RYnBA4T8Q
