Thank you, God, for Easter.
For the certainties of our faith.
For the spirit surging into the Church and its people in their
creative lives lived out in Jesus.
Thank you, God, for Easter.
For the newness of Spring.
For all the exhilarating expectations of new life available to
those who are broken, defeated and overwhelmed by the
world.
Come to them, in the risen power of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Thank you, God, for Easter.
The Great Festival of the Church.
The starting place of faith.
Let us be filled with the joy of it.
Let us sing out from the grace of it.
Let us sing out from the love of it.
Let us rejoice in the open hope of it.
Let your spirit dance through our souls.
Let your grace cover us like a mantle.
Let your purity shine within us.
Let your forgiveness lift our burdens.
Let your compassion soothe our wounds through it.
Let your mercy cover all men, women and children through
it. That they may know the joy of Christ the Saviour,
Risen and Exalted β bringing forth his Kingdom for all
mankind. Alleluia Amen ππΌπΉβ€ππ
Prayer for Easter
