Blessings of Hope at Easter Triduum

Most High, Glorious, Good God

to you alone belong praise and glory,

all honour and blessing.

Praise and bless God and give God thanks;

and serve God with great humility.

A Prayer for Easter

 

Risen Lord

You are life,

You are new life,

You are fullness of life.

 

Risen Lord

You are hope,

You are renewing hope,

You are our journey of hope.

 

Risen Lord

You are here,

You are here among us,

You are here raising us up.

 

Risen Lord

On this pilgrimage of life,

we rejoice in your resurrection

for it reminds us hope is always here

because you dwell among us.

 

May we be witnesses

of your resurrection in all we do,

in the ways we build community,

in how we gather at table

and recognize you in the breaking of the bread.

 

May we journey with hope,

May we raise our voices with hope,

May we allow our hearts to be transformed

by the hope which is your new life in us.

 

Amen. Alleluia!

 

Br. Michael,
