Oh how we joy in Christ and you joy in him too. We long to glorify him, and you delight to glorify your Son. We would set him on high, and you have set him “far above all principalities and powers, and every name that is named.”
Now this day, we pray, “behold our shield and look upon the face of your Anointed;” and while we shelter behind him as a shield, let him stand for us, and let the glory of God shine in the face of Jesus Christ, that you may be precious to us unworthy ones.
