First Sunday of Advent

From the Book of Common Prayer:

Almighty
God, give us the grace to cast away the works of darkness, and put on
the armor of light, now in the time of this mortal life in which your
Son Jesus Christ came to visit us in great humility; that in the last
day, when he shall come again in his glorious majesty to judge both the
living and the dead, we may rise to life immortal; through him who
lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for
ever.

Amen.
