This is the Day You have Made for us
Your Resurrection is the Hope of our Own

This is the day you have made for us, risen Lord, a day of happiness and joy!

We pray to you, Lord:
Make each day that you give us the most beautiful day of our lives,
because it is the day you have chosen for us to encounter you.
O risen Christ!

May you be blessed, Lord Jesus, because your Resurrection is the hope of our own, and the glory which will clothe us on the last day is a reflection of that which clothed you on Easter morning.

We pray to you:
Let all our lives express this hope by their constant renewal through the joy
of your love and the service of our brothers.
(Lucien Deiss, Biblical Prayers)
