Holy Creator of Trees,

Bless with your abundant grace this our Christmas tree as a symbol of joy.

May its evergreen branches be a sign of your never-fading promises.

May its colorful lights and ornaments call us to decorate with love our home and our world. May the gifts that surround this tree be symbols of the gifts that we have received from the Tree of Christ’s Cross.

Holy Christmas tree within our home, may Joy and Peace come and nest in your branches and in our hearts.

Amen.
