hrist, our Morning Star, splendour of Light Eternal, shining with the glory of the rainbow, come and waken us from the greyness of our apathy, and renew in us the gift of hope. Amen. Bede the Venerable (673 – 735)
od, you reveal your glory in the life and in the power of your Risen Son. We pray that your Kingdom will come. We long for the glorious day of Christ’s revelation when the kingdom of death and tears will end and your kingdom of peace, justice and love will be established forever. Amen.
