Prelude | Special Music | Praise Band |
Lord of heaven and earth, what a time of praise and hope! On this day of radiant gladness we rejoice in the assurance of your love, and the miracle that is the Resurrection. We give thanks for Christ’s victory over death, and the promise of eternal life with you. A new beginning that starts today, as we claim your holy gift. Forgive us when we doubt, we pray; forgive us when our faith falters. Help us to be as little children, alive in our faith, and confident that, in you all things are possible. Let us be your Easter People! In Jesus name we pray, Amen. |

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 debts, as we forgive our debtors, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen. |
