We praise You as the One Who put all the world into motion and is not bound by anything of this world. We praise You as the Blessed Trinity, all of which was needed to make the world form into its being, and Aid us all so very much. We praise You, mindful of Your Greatness and Majesty, that is beyond our comprehension. This Day we especially praise You as the Son, Triumphant, ever reigning, raised up from the Grave, for You are Greater than anything of this world. Thus we praise You, Father Son and Holy Spirit, Amen Prayer of Thanksgiving Gracious God, we give thanks for all Your Loving gifts to us, from the gifts of the morning, springtime and friendship that put smiles on our faces, to the most glorious gift of the resurrection which You brought to pass for us, that we might have the hope and example of the life eternal, knowing that death is not the end. We Give thanks for all Your gifts to us, for those we can easily call to mind and those we take for granted so much that we forget they too are Your gifts. So we pray, and say, Lord God, Thank You. Amen Prayer of Confession Forgiving Father, who as the Son endured so much for our sakes, we make our confession of our sins. We have committed sins against others, and against You. We admit all the bad things we have done, and confess them. We say, Lord God, we are sorry for all the wrongful things we have done, in word, deed and thought. We are mindful of Your Love for us, and remember that when we are sorry, You lift us up once more and say, Your Sins are forgiven. We are cleansed of our sins, and set right once more, and we ask You to strengthen us, so that we might be more able to resist sin. We thank You Lord for Your forgiveness, and all the things You will do for us in the days to come. Amen. Lord’s Prayer Our Father, Who art in Heaven Hallowed be thy Name Thy Kingdom Come Thy Will be Done On Earth As It Is in Heaven Give us this day, Our daily bread And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive them that trespass against us, And lead us not into temptation But deliver us from Evil For thine is the Kingdom, The Power and the Glory Forever and Ever Amen Prayers of Intercession We bring our prayers of Intercession before God to ask his help in the world, as in the traditional way there is a response, after the words “Risen Lord Hear us” the response is, “Risen Lord, Graciously Hear us” Risen Lord Hear us Risen Lord Graciously Hear us Those in Want O Lord we bring before You those who are in want of material things, be it of food, of water, of shelter or anything else that is necessary to life. Lord, we know that their stories are many and varied, as are their needs. So we ask that where we can help their relief from want, we shall know how to do so, and shall set to it with a will. Where we cannot help them with our hands, we pray for the hands and hearts of others to be moved to help with all possible speed. We pray for all who are afraid in this difficult time, asking for their comfort, and the relief of the many strains upon their nerves. We pray too for all those who are in peril and far from being vaccinated, Lord speak to them that they may keep themselves as safe as possible. Risen Lord Hear us Risen Lord Graciously Hear us Those in Sickness We pray for those who are ill. We pray for those whose sickness is but seasonal or of short duration. We pray for those whose ailments are long lasting or slow to heal. God grant them healing if it be possible, and comfort in all cases. We pray too for all those who work in healthcare and social care to the aid of others, give them strength and keep them from tiredness and error. We pray too for those who labour to find new cures and treatments, please God, bless their hands and their efforts, that they may know much success and never want for ideas. We pray especially for the roll out of the vaccines, Lord, help the supplies to flow in abundance and for competence to guide the distribution throughout the world. Risen Lord Hear us Risen Lord Graciously Hear us Those in mourning and despair We bring before You those who mourn, Lord, we ask that they may know the comforts of Your Gospel and its truth, ...
