Read More Resurrecting God,
this week has had within it such trials, such tribulations, and such sorrows.
But they are all washed away.
They are washed away by the grace
that gushes from that empty tomb.
Your creation relentless; it will not be ended by death’s devices.
We gather for there is a story that needs to be told,
a joyful song that cries out to be sung!
Jesus Christ is risen today!
Amen!
God of the tomb,
your Son has entrusted his life to you
in the moment when all is dark and hope seems nothing but a memory.
The body that was broken has been buried and the song that we had sung is now silent.
God of love,
When death seems to have the final word, give us courage.
When hope seems to be buried, give us endurance.
When stones seal us from the light, give us love.
Above all, give us the trust
that now is the only companion for your Son in that lonely tomb.
In the name of the One whose death will give us life, we pray. Amen.
God of the cross,
For us, sinners though we are, you were nailed to a cross.
For us, you took a final breath, and walked willingly into the darkness.
For us, you were broken. For us, you lived. For us, you died.
You do not deserve this death. We do not deserve your life.
God of grace, give our hearts courage to accept your grace
and to respond to the life that was given for all.
Guide us through the darkness ahead
that we might be renewed by the light that is to come.
It the name of the Blessed One who was taken and broken, we pray.
Amen.
Holy Lamb, we gather at your table as beloved friends,
invited by nothing less than your everlasting grace.
As the bread is broken and the cup is poured,
may our hearts break at your betrayal,
and our souls pour out the love that you have poured upon us.
This we pray in your holy and good name. Amen.
