prayer for the lighting of the Advent wreath - fourth Sunday of Advent

On this fourth Sunday of Advent, we light all four candles on the Advent wreath: 

Father, all-powerful God, your eternal word took flesh on earth when the Blessed Virgin Mary with great joy placed her life at the service of your plan. As we light the four candles on our Advent wreath on this last Sunday of Advent, we lift up our minds and our hearts in hope to hear the voice announce God's glory.  May we open our minds to receive the Holy Spirit in preparation for the coming of Christ into our world. We ask this through Christ our Lord.  AMEN.
