Father, we praise you for your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ; through the Holy Spirit he offered himself in sacrifice to you, that we might be delivered from death and selfishness, and be free to live in your peace.
– Father, in your will is our peace.
We accept this new day as your gift, Lord;
grant that we may live in newness of life.
– Father, in your will is our peace.
You made all things, and keep all things in being;
give us the insight to see your hand at work in them all.
– Father, in your will is our peace.
Your Son sealed the new and everlasting covenant in his blood;
help us to live by this covenant and honour it.
– Father, in your will is our peace.
As Jesus died on the cross, blood and water flowed from his side;
as we share in the eucharist, pour out your Spirit upon us.
– Father, in your will is our peace.
