 Hymn: O Come, O Come, Emmanuel

 

Reading : Matthew 9:27-31

And as Jesus passed from thence, there followed him two blind men crying out and saying, Have mercy on us, O Son of David.when he was come to the house, the blind men came to him. And Jesus saith to them, Do you believe, that I can do this unto you? They say to him, Yea, Lord.

And

Then he touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith, be it done unto you.

And their eyes were opened, and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See that no man know this.

But they going out, spread his fame abroad in all that country.
