Shine upon us Lord
As the sun rises at dawn
to bring light to the world
so you rose that Easter morn,
the true light to shine
into the darkness of our lives.
You bring us fresh hope
in the wonder of your love,
a love so powerful
that not even death itself
could overcome:
Risen Lord, we thank you.
Amen.

The gift of peace
Lord,
when you rose from the dead
you greeted your disciples
with the gift of your peace.
Lord, may your pace
embrace us also,
fill our spirits,
fill our minds;
and fill our hearts,
that we may stay close to you
this Easter and always.
Amen.
The Prayer Trust
We rejoice
Lord, this Easter
we ask your blessing
as we rejoice in the wonder
of your rising again
after death.
For you have promised
that we, too, can rise again
and be with you
to share in your joy.
Thank you, Lord,
for sharing with us on earth
so that we can share with you
in your heavenly kingdom.
Amen.
The Prayer Trust
Our search
Risen Lord
Help us to follow your light,
your inspirations in our lives,
confident You will guide us.
Help us not to lose heart
but to seek you with all our hearts,
for our search
is not earthly treasures,
but for lasting friendship with you.
Amen.
The Prayer Trust
