Awake, the new life,
Easter dawn has come,
Bathe in the new light..

Lord,
You are risen,
Death has no power over you.

Why am I shadowed by death?
Sin
Sickness
Frailty!

Teach me
To reach out
To the power of the Resurrection.

Here I come
Out of the shadows
Into the light.

Easter Prayer (2)

Christ be with me,
Christ within me,
Christ behind me,
Christ before me,

Christ beside me,
Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort
and restore me,

Christ beneath me,
Christ above me,
Christ in quiet,
Christ in danger,

Christ in hearts
of all that love me,
Christ in mouth
of friend and stranger.
