ОглавлениеEucharistic Prayer for Advent
Lord God, you come to us
in the simplicity of a baby,
yet are greater by far than our imagining:
Come to us, Lord.
Lord Christ, you hide your ways from
the proud,
yet reveal your truth to those of a
childlike spirit:
Come to us, Lord.
Lord Spirit, you overthrow the powerful,
yet empower the humble and open of heart:
Come to us, Lord.
Come to us now in your vulnerable strength,
as we remember Jesus,
who brought wholeness and life
through his death and resurrection.
On the night before he died,
he took bread and wine, blessed them
and gave them to his friends, saying,
‘This is my body, this is my blood.
Eat and drink to remember me.’
Come freshly to us, living God;
bring in your kingdom of justice and love:
Your kingdom come.
Heal us, that we may be whole in your service:
Your kingdom come.
Teach us, that we may be surprised into truth:
Your kingdom come.
For you are the God who longs to set us free
to love and serve you wholeheartedly:
Your kingdom come in us, Lord,
and transform the world
to your praise and glory. Amen.
